Screening: Quick Scan

The Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute provides low-cost screening for vascular disease. Peripheral arterial disease is a significant predictor of coronary artery disease and/or stroke. Using ultrasound, Quick Scan will detect:

  • Blocked carotid arteries (risk for stroke)
  • Abdominal aortic aneurysms (weakening of the main blood vessel of the body)
  • The presence of blocked arteries in the legs
  • High blood pressure

The cost of the test may not be covered by insurance.
