Comprehensive CAT Scan (CT) Imaging Services in Sarasota, FL
Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA)
A CTA visualizes blood vessels in detail. During a computed tomography scan, contrast dye is injected into a vein, usually in the arm, to increase the visibility of blood vessels. The CT scanner takes high-resolution images as the contrast dye flows through the blood vessels, creating detailed cross-sectional and 3D images of arteries and veins. CTA captures images from multiple angles, which are processed by a computer. These images help diagnose aneurysms, blockages, narrowing of arteries, blood clots, and vascular malformations. They provide valuable insights about the cardiovascular system for physicians and functional medicine doctors.
CT Health Screenings
CT health screenings use computed tomography to capture detailed cross-sectional images of the body. They are an important tool for preventive health to detect early signs of disease before symptoms develop. Doctors order them during a health assessment in Sarasota, FL for people with a family history of cancer, or cardiovascular risk factors, as well as for smokers who might have lung cancer. Sometimes a full body CAT scan is completed to accurately diagnose specific conditions or to determine if cancer has metastasized to other parts of the body.
CT lung cancer screening
A CT scan for lung cancer screening is a highly effective tool for detecting lung cancer in its early stages before symptoms appear. Low-dose CT (LDCT) scans provide detailed images of the lungs, allowing doctors to identify nodules or abnormalities that may not be visible on standard X-rays. Early detection through CT screening improves the chances of successful treatment and survival. Lung cancer is more treatable when caught at an early stage. A CT scan for lung cancer is recommended for high-risk patients like long-term smokers, former smokers, or people who have been exposed to asbestos. CT lung scans can save lives by catching lung cancer early.

What Our Clients Are Saying
“Dr. Davis is great!
He is interested in solving the root cause of my issues, not just prescribing drugs and sending me on my way.
He always spends over an hour with me going over every aspect of my health.
Such a contrast to my last cardiologist that never spent more than 15 minutes with me, prescribing drugs that negatively affected me, never looking for the cause of my problems, and only doing what the insurance company would pay for.”
Norma Rosenberg
“I recently took my family member to see Dr. Davis due to the research that I have doing on heart disease on the internet. Dr. Davis went beyond all my expectations! It is very difficult to find a integrative functional medicine cardiologist who also knows the conventional approach as Dr. Davis. He was very compassionate and did not make you feel like he was in a hurry. He listened very intently to everything we had to say. He definitely is not your conventional cardiologist that has a revolving door of prescribing statins to their patients. The best thing about Dr. Davis was his holistic approach to heart issues. He considers in all the different contingencies involved in heart disease. I highly recommend him to anyone who really wants to get to the root cause of their heart disease. His staff was also amazing!”

“Dr. Cris Davis was previously a top rated cardiovascular surgeon. He now brings that skill base into his current wellness practice which is especially important to me as a patient of his with cardiac disease. His practice is phenomenal and my health has improved significantly! I’ve experienced a tremendous decrease in my weight as well. He’s a genius at this and all I can say is please don’t hesitate to make an investment in yourself towards longevity!”
Frank Griffith Jr.
“I’m an ex pharmacist based in Australia and came across Dr Chris Davis in a magazine publication.I was looking for a cardiologist who could help my dad in London with a more holistic approach to minimise the number of medications but maximise his health through exercise, healthy lifestyle and any preventive actions he could take. My dad also had a lot heavy legs and hip pain. He had been to multiple different hospital appointments in London with no real positive outcomes. He was low on energy and at 77 starting to think he is getting old! Dr Chris made recommendations to my dads general practitioner and offered specific healthcare advice. 3 months later my dad has lots of energy, is walking 10 times the
distance he could walk before and is virtually pain free. Seeing my dad happy and like a little kid again is priceless. Thank you so much.”
Hament Chavda
“In February I decided to seek out a functional doctor for numerous issues I have had, from thyroid issues, to sleep issues, anxiety, HRT, to just name a few. From day one the office staff was super helpful in gathering all of my medical records. My first visit with Dr. Davis lasted close to two hours. He listened, discussed, reviewed and ordered labs to gather details that my previous doctors had not looked at. Upon completion of my labs, we had another two hour visit to complete an action plan/next steps. The changes he made and the supplements he prescribed have already started working and I am feeling so much better. Dr. Davis is caring, thorough, and attentive to my health care needs. The office staff is also outstanding.”
Kelly Dancer
“I believe it’s essential for every patient to have a doctor like Dr. Davis when it comes to their wellness journey- whichever path that may be! He truly is a whole different breed in the best way possible. What he has created and is continuing to expand in his clinic is the future of medicine. His knowledge is unmatchable. He’s driven and motivated to find the root cause, not just suppress your symptoms which is key! I cannot say enough good things about him and his staff! They are always personable and very on top of things. If you’re looking for the gold standard of a doctor, staff, testing, diagnosing, an individualized treatment plan, etc. Look no further, you just found it! I feel blessed to have found a doctor that I truly trust and will continue to be a loyal client of his for many years to come!”

CAT Scanning FAQs
What Is the Average Cost of a CT Scan in Florida?
How much a CT scan in Sarasota FL costs depends on the type of scan, where it's done, and whether contrast dye is used. For more information about the cost of CT scans in specific areas of the body, call us at Reveal Vitality for more information. Some CT scans may be covered by insurance and others may be self-pay.
Is There a Difference Between a CT Scan and a CAT Scan?
There isn’t any difference between a CT scan and a CAT scan. They refer to the same imaging procedure, also called Computed Tomography. Both use advanced technology to help doctors diagnose and monitor medical conditions.
What Cancers Can a CT Scan Detect?
A CT scan detects types of cancers and identifies and monitors lung cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer, ovarian cancer, and colorectal cancer. CT scans can also detect cancers of the stomach, esophagus, and bladder, as well as tumors in the brain and spine. CAT scans can show the size, shape, and spread of cancer to nearby tissues or other parts of the body, making it an important tool for cancer diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning.
What Is the Most Common Reason for a CT Scan?
The most common reason for a CT scan is to diagnose and evaluate injuries or conditions involving the head, chest, abdomen, or pelvis. CT scans can detect trauma, like fractures or internal bleeding, and assess tumors, infections, or blood clots. Physicians use them to investigate persistent symptoms, like unexplained pain, swelling, or difficulty breathing, and to manage and monitor the progression of diseases.
What Does Not Show Up on a CT Scan?
CT scans visualize bones, organs, and tissues, but they don’t always detect everything. Certain soft tissue abnormalities, small tumors, or early-stage cancers might not be clearly evident on a CT scan, depending on their size and location. Brain or spinal cord issues may be better evaluated using an MRI. CT scans are also not ideal for detecting some metabolic or functional abnormalities, which might need PET scans or blood tests for diagnosis.
