A Beverly Hills, CA, company wants to capitalize on the whole-body CT scan market. InsideTrac has been in business a little over a year, has five radiologists on staff, and is considering adding facilities in California's San Fernando Valley and San Francisco Bay Area.
The company offers images of the cardiovascular system, lungs, and major organs of the abdomen and pelvis. It also includes an evaluation of bone density for osteoporosis. InsideTrac also offers virtual colonoscopy, as well as dental screenings for evaluation of the face, including the maxilla and mandible.
In addition to the scans, the company includes a "wellness module" that couples the information taken from the scans with an integrated plan of lifestyle choices, diet and treatment alternatives.
The InsideTrac programs -- including analysis, physician consultation, written report, CD-ROM and Internet access to scan results -- range in price from $395-$1,325.
