Advanced Body Scan is dedicated to providing Bellaire residents with essential preventive healthcare services right here in their community. Located at 4460 Bissonnet St, Bellaire, TX 77401, our state-of-the-art facility offers a range of advanced imaging services designed to help you maintain your health and well-being. We understand that accessing quality healthcare can sometimes be challenging, which is why we focus on making preventive scans more accessible and affordable for our neighbors.
At Advanced Body Scan, we believe that early detection is key to addressing potential health concerns effectively. Our Bellaire center provides four primary types of advanced imaging services:
Preventive Heart Scans: These non-invasive tests help identify calcium buildup in the coronary arteries, which is a strong indicator of heart disease risk. Knowing your heart health proactively can empower you to make lifestyle changes or seek further medical advice before any serious issues develop.
Preventive Lung Scans: Using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT), our lung scans are designed to detect abnormalities in the lungs, such as nodules or early signs of lung cancer, particularly for individuals at higher risk. This service is a vital tool in the fight against lung cancer, one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths.
Advanced Body Scans: Our comprehensive body scans provide detailed images of various internal structures. These scans can be useful for monitoring overall health, detecting unexpected growths, or evaluating symptoms. They offer a broad overview to support your healthcare provider in making informed decisions about your care.
Virtual Colonoscopy (CT Colonography): This innovative procedure offers a less invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopy for colorectal cancer screening. Using CT technology, we create detailed 3D images of the colon and rectum, allowing our team to thoroughly examine these areas for any abnormalities.
We utilize cutting-edge technology at our Bellaire location to ensure high-quality images and accurate results. Our experienced technicians are committed to providing a comfortable and efficient experience for every patient. We understand that stepping into a medical imaging facility can be intimidating, which is why our Bellaire team focuses on patient education and support throughout the entire process.
Our mission at Advanced Body Scan is to be a valuable resource for the Bellaire community, offering advanced diagnostic services that contribute to better health outcomes. By making these important preventive scans available locally, we aim to simplify the healthcare journey for our residents.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Are your preventive scans covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for preventive scans varies depending on the specific procedure and your policy. While some insurance plans may cover certain scans as part of recommended preventative care, others may require out-of-pocket payment. We recommend contacting our Bellaire office at (346) 955-7226 to discuss your specific situation and insurance benefits.
Q2: How long does an appointment typically take?
Most preventive scan appointments at our Bellaire facility are scheduled for 30-60 minutes. This includes time for registration, changing into a gown if needed, the actual scan procedure, and a brief review of the images with our technologist before you leave.
Q3: Do I need to prepare for my scan?
Preparation instructions vary depending on the specific scan. For example, a virtual colonoscopy may require specific bowel preparation, while a heart scan typically requires no special preparation. Our Bellaire team will provide detailed instructions after you schedule your appointment.
Q4: How soon will I receive my results?
Our Bellaire center typically processes scan results within 24-48 business hours. Once the images are reviewed, your report will be made available online through our patient portal, and our team will contact your primary care physician to share the findings.
Q5: Are the scans at your Bellaire location safe?
Yes, the scans offered at our Bellaire facility use minimal radiation doses where applicable (like our lung and heart scans) and are performed by certified, experienced technicians following strict safety protocols. Our virtual colonoscopy uses standard CT radiation levels considered safe for screening purposes.
