With advanced nuclear cardiac imaging facilities and nationally recognized expertise, Harper University Hospital offers one of the most comprehensive cardiac imaging programs in Michigan.
The cardiac imaging experts at Harper University Hospital offer nuclear imaging studies and other non-invasive imaging modalities to accurately diagnose blockages in the arteries of the heart, recognize the presence of prior heart attacks, assess the pumping function of the heart and predict the chance of future heart attacks and the risk of death due to cardiac causes.
Led by Florence Prigent, M.D. - a cardiac imaging expert trained in cardiology, nuclear medicine and nuclear cardiac imaging - the program provides referring physicians with detailed reports and in-depth interpretation of cardiac imaging studies. This high level of detail helps the referring physician develop the best treatment plan for each patient.
In addition to echocardiography and traditional nuclear imaging studies, Harper University Hospital will soon be one of the few locations in Michigan to offer a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan program. PET scans can be completed more quickly than traditional nuclear cardiac imaging studies and provide a much greater scan clarity for more accurate interpretation.
Harper will also soon add other advanced diagnostic scans, including coronary calcification scans and non-invasive angiography.
