can body scanners detect disease
Full body scanning can detect heart, lung, musculoskeletal, endocrine, and prostate and ovarian disease as well as tumors, aneurysms, osteoporosis, hernias, and kidney and gall stones. Full body scanning is performed on a multislice computed tomography (CT) scanner in only 30 seconds. This study provides both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) images of all types of tissue, allowing for more accurate detection of various cancers and diseases before symptoms occur.
The body scan may detect early or advanced heart disease, aneurysms of the aorta, vascular disease, lung tumors, kidney tumors and liver tumors, calcified kidney stones, calcified gallstones, and certain abnormalities in the abdominal and pelvic region.
