Title
Milwaukee Heart Scan – Living Well Through Early Detection
Description
When Nancy Burlingame, a cardiac nurse, was offered an EBT (Electron Beam Tomography) heart scan 10 years ago, she wondered what this was all about. After all she was only 38 years old. She felt fine.
But Nancy wasn't fine. Her EBT heart scan showed serious and advanced heart disease. In fact, her heart disease was progressing at a rate of 40% yearly. Nancy more than likely would have experienced a heart event within the next three years. Thanks to early detection and determining the cause of Nancy's heart disease, Nancy has actually reduced her calcium coronary score and is enjoying her life and her grandchildren.
Steve, Nancy's husband, had been working for a group of doctors opening new clinics. So they asked themselves, why not open an EBT center? In 1999, Wisconsin's first EBT center was opened. Steve and Nancy Burlingame are committed to helping others because they know first hand the advantage of early detection.
