- Heart Scans to detect blockage -- An article from the NY Times. When shoiuld you have one? Here is my response: Sounds to me like this is being handled well. Both sides are having the opportunity to argue their postion. It really should be up to the individual doctors and the patients.
My layman's opinion is (1) that a patient should take the CT scan/test if there is any suspicion that he has clogged arteries and/or (2) if he has been prescribed medicine to lower cholesterol or reduce blood pressure. Those medicines have known side effects. Before taking those medicines, I think it would be wise to see if your arteries are clogged. I also think it would be a good idea for every 60 or 65 year old to take the test to establish a baseline for artery clogging. I might just ask my doctor to prescribe the test for me. (MRC)
