The 64 Slice CT scan is essentially an angiogram of the heart arteries using cat scan. It is sometimes seen as the Heart Scan or Heart CT. It can be a helpful tool for cardiologists to diagnose coronary artery disease. This procedure can find blockages in the heart arteries, similar to a heart catheterization, but noninvasively. The HEART SCAN can be very helpful. My uncle had no symptoms of heart disease, but the 64 CT scan showed a blockage in the front wall artery. He then had a regular angiogram in the hospital and he ended up getting 2 stents into that artery. lizopharm 12 years ago My doctor recommended the CT scan to diagnose cartery artery disease.
