Am I eligible for a volunteer scan?
You are eligible to receive free scans through our program if you are referred to us by your physician or are able to have your primary physician sign our “MD Clearance” form.
You may also be eligible if you qualify for one of the current EPARC research studies. Please contact us to see what our lab has going on!
In addition to the above, you CANNOT be scanned for the following reasons:
- You weigh more than 350 pounds
- You cannot lie still for 6-8 minutes (eg. No tremors)
- You have had partial or full hip replacement in BOTH hips (hip replacement in one hip is okay)
- You have had medical imaging requiring dye in the 2 weeks prior to your scan appointment
- If there is any chance you may be pregnant. Additionally, scans may not be very accurate if you are currently breastfeeding
