At Virtual Imaging, we specialize in providing advanced medical imaging solutions to detect various types of cancers at an early stage, even before symptoms appear. Our LDCT scans cover various areas of the body, including the lungs, heart, abdomen, and pelvis, to detect different types of cancers and conditions.

Pancreatic Cancer

At Virtual Imaging, we use our low-dose CT scans to detect early signs of pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer, with a five-year survival rate of only 10% when detected at an advanced stage. However, the survival rate can increase to 25% with early detection through LDCT screening. According to the American Cancer Society, people with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer may benefit from screening with CT scans starting at age 50 or earlier.

Aneurysms

Similarly, abdominal aortic aneurysms and thoracic aortic aneurysms are life-threatening conditions that can be detected through our low-dose CT scans. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 15,000 people die each year in the United States from an aortic aneurysm rupture. However, the risk of rupture can be significantly reduced with early detection and timely intervention.

Understanding Aortic Aneurysms

Abdominal aortic aneurysms occur when the wall of the aorta, the main blood vessel in the abdomen, weakens and bulges outward. Thoracic aortic aneurysms occur when the same happens in the chest area. While many aneurysms may not show any symptoms, some people may experience sudden and severe pain in the chest, back, or abdomen.

Understanding the Risks

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) and thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) are serious medical conditions that can have life-threatening consequences if left untreated. The rupture of an aneurysm is a medical emergency, and immediate treatment is necessary to prevent serious complications or death.

Detecting Aneurysms Early

It is important to note that aneurysms may not cause any symptoms until they rupture, which is why prophylactic screening with low-dose CT virtual scans can be a valuable tool in detecting these conditions at an early stage. At Virtual Imaging, we offer comprehensive imaging solutions to detect aneurysms and other conditions before they cause serious harm.

Kidney Cancer

Kidney cancer, also known as renal cell carcinoma, is a type of cancer that originates in the kidneys. It is essential to be aware of the signs and symptoms associated with kidney cancer to facilitate early detection and improve treatment outcomes. While some cases of kidney cancer may not present noticeable symptoms in the early stages, there are several indicators that individuals should be mindful of.

Kidney Cancer Symptoms

Common symptoms of kidney cancer include blood in the urine (hematuria), which may appear as pink, red, or dark-colored urine. Additionally, individuals may experience persistent pain in the back or side, below the ribs. This pain can range from a dull ache to sharp discomfort. Other possible signs include a palpable lump or mass in the abdomen, unexplained weight loss, fatigue, and intermittent fevers. It is important to note that these symptoms may also be indicative of other health conditions.

Early Detection

Detecting kidney cancer early can significantly impact treatment options and overall prognosis. According to the American Cancer Society, the five-year survival rate for individuals diagnosed with localized kidney cancer (confined to the kidney) is approximately 92%. This emphasizes that regular screenings, such as low-dose CT scans, can aid in identifying kidney cancer at its early stages when the chances of successful treatment and recovery are the highest.
