Most physicians that are primary care doctors understand that a significant part of their medical services is for people that are facing diseases linked to aging.
The Baby Boomers and Aging
Because the Baby-Boomers are aging, the average primary care doctor has at least fifty percent of their patients over the age of 55, and there are always a significant amount of health concerns that can crop up. Most primary doctors have a wide variety of tools at their offices to treat and diagnose people with diseases related to aging. However, because some of the technology for disease-related diagnosis for such health issues as heart disease can be cost-prohibitive, many primary care doctors refer their patients out for diagnosis.
Mobile Imaging for Heart Disease
While having patients go to an imaging center for diagnosis is not unusual, it can make some elderly patients feel uncomfortable and can take away from a physician’s ability to be as proactive as they would like. That is why there are mobile cardiac PET imaging exam vehicles that work with primary care physicians to bring their services directly to their office location at specified dates and times. This allows for primary care physicians to be more extensively involved in the diagnosis and treatment of some of their elderly patients that often rely heavily on their primary care doctors to get the best advice and treatment.
Through the use of modern diagnostic technology from mobile cardiac PET scanning and imaging, physicians can bring state of the art medicine right to their doorstep so they can treat their cardiac patients with the most cutting-edge tools in nuclear medicine. This can all be accomplished without primary care doctors, even leaving their office.
