The Latest Non-Invasive Diagnostics

 
 
Along with state-of-
the-art diagnostic
equipment, FCI Heart Center can provide same or next day scheduling and test results.
 
 

     One of the first steps toward getting heart healthy is getting tested. FCI Heart Center provides comprehensive diagnostic services to ultimately recommend the best course of treatment. All heart and vascular testing utilizes the latest state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment.

     Many diagnostic tests available today can show doctors if you have heart or vascular disease. Or, if you already know that you have heart disease, these tests can show doctors if your disease is getting worse. Many of these tests produce "pictures" of your heart. The pictures will not look like a heart, though, and your doctor will have to tell you what these pictures show.

     Some tests are more reliable than others, especially for detecting coronary artery disease. Your doctor will decide which test is best for you, based on your symptoms, your medical history, and your history of disease. All of the tests listed on the left hand column can be performed on an outpatient basis, which means that you will not have to stay overnight in the hospital. (You may need to have more invasive tests if your doctor finds that your disease is more serious.)

     Our highly trained and experienced staff strive to make the entire experience pleasant and worry-free for you and your family. Plus, will provide you and your primary care doctor with accurate and timely results.
