Calcium Score Test in Dubai – Mega Scan Centre
What is a Calcium Score Test?
A Calcium Score Test, also known as a coronary calcium scan, is a non-invasive imaging test that measures the amount of calcium buildup in your coronary arteries. This calcium buildup, also called plaque, can narrow the arteries and increase the risk of heart disease or heart attacks.
At Mega Scan Centre Dubai, we use advanced CT technology to provide accurate calcium scoring, helping you and your doctor assess your heart health early.
