There is a cardiac-related death every 3 minutes in the UK.

Most people who have a first cardiac event had no symptoms the day before.

The problem with waiting

Coronary artery disease is largely silent. There are no obvious symptoms until an artery is significantly narrowed - or worse. Yet it is the UK's biggest killer.

CTA

See what's happening inside your coronary arteries - before your body tells you. A CT Coronary Angiogram that reveals plaque, narrowing, and risk, so you can act on what's there before symptoms appear.

What we look for

Soft plaque

the dangerous kind. Invisible to a calcium-only scan.

Soft plaque

Hard (calcified) plaque

your calcium burden, reported alongside the full scan.

Arterial narrowing

stenosis, graded by vessel.

Structural abnormalities

anything that warrants a closer look or onward referral.

Why a CTCA, not just a calcium score?

A calcium score only detects calcified plaque. Soft, non-calcified plaque can be equally dangerous. And a calcium score is blind to it. It's what leading cardiologists recommend for patients who want a thorough answer.

The NHS won't book a preventative CTCA. We will.

On the NHS, a CTCA is only available if you already have symptoms - chest pain, shortness of breath, a suspected problem. By that point, something has already gone wrong.

CTA

We believe that's too late.

A private CTCA lets you act on what's actually happening inside your coronary arteries, not what your body chooses to tell you.

Expert-led, end to end.

  • Every scan is read by a consultant cardiac radiologist
  • Every patient speaks to a clinician before and after
  • No scan disappears into a report with no one to explain it

Common Questions

Designed to flag significant findings, then guide next steps.

Is this right for me?

A CT coronary angiogram (CTCA) is a detailed scan of the arteries that supply your heart. It can detect plaque, narrowing and early coronary artery disease - often years before any symptoms appear. Most people choose this if they:

  • Have a family history of heart disease, heart attack or stroke
  • Have cardiovascular risk factors - raised cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a history of smoking
  • Are over 40 and want a clear picture of their heart and artery health
  • Have symptoms such as chest tightness or breathlessness on exertion that they want investigated
  • Want a reliable baseline measure of their coronary health for peace of mind

This scan may not be suitable, or may need to be postponed, if you:

  • Are pregnant or might be pregnant (the scan uses a small dose of radiation)
  • Have a severe allergy to iodine-based contrast dye
  • Have significantly reduced kidney function (we check this with a blood test beforehand)
  • Have an irregular or very fast heart rhythm that can't be slowed enough for clear images (we assess this at your consultation)

We screen for all of this before your scan, so you'll only ever go ahead when it's safe and appropriate for you.
