Prevention and Wellness Screenings

Heart Score

To help you "know the score" when it comes to your risk for Heart Disease, Rush-Copley offers the Heart Score CT Scan.  This is a simple yet comprehensive screening that uses images from our state-of-the-art 64-slice CT scanner to indicate the amount of calcification present in your coronary arteries.  The Heart Score is just $ 99.

Digital Mammography

A mammogram is simple breast X-rays that are quick, easy and safe.  In fact, mammograms use less radiation than a dentist's X-ray.  Rush-Copley is the only hospital in the Fox Valley area that can promise you diagnostic and screening results within an hour.  To give you extra piece of mind, we go one step further by using R2 ImageChecker, a state-of-the-art computer assisted detection system.

Bone Densitometry

Bone Densitometry is an examination of the lower spine and hip to measure the strength or density of the bones.  The complete procedures take approximately 10 minutes and involves no pain, needles or tunnels.  A radiologist interprets the results and a report is faxed to your physician within 24 hours and mailed to you within three to five business days.  A physician referral is required.  To make an appointment, call 630-978-6750.
