For those who believe that their health and well-being are the most valuable assets to live an active and productive lifestyle, you may benefit from a comprehensive 'Healthy Ageing' health check-up and screening. This service is currently only available in the ACT,
The health check-up involves an intake and extensive physical examination by a sport and exercise physician.
Besides blood tests to assess your risk for type 2 diabetes, your cholesterol and lipid profile, your liver and kidney function, we can also refer you for a cardiopulmonary exercise (VO2max) testing on a bicycle ergometer with stress-ECG, a coronary CT calcium score and a DEXA scan to assess your body composition, muscle mass and bone mineral density.
Through the new 640 slice Ultra low dose CT scanner, a coronary CT calcium score is performed in one rotation, 0.27 sec, with the lowest dose available on the market.
If indicated, we can also organize a more detailed CT-angiogram of your coronary arteries and / or a follow-up appointment with a cardiologist for an echocardiogram.
