• Patients who have risk factors for coronary artery disease, such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, smoking or family history AND who are 45 years of age and above (intermediate Framingham Risk for CAD) should consider a calcium score if they can afford one.

Patients of our practice will receive a 40% discount on this price, $250 + tax.
