MEDICINE: Shopping-mall CAT scans

Here's something else I encountered on the way to the
Discovery Channel retail shop at the Scottsdale Fashion
Square Mall:

"http://www.ameriscan.org/"

First time I've seen this type of shopping mail
diagnostic center. Granted, Scottsdale is a very
upscale suburb of Phoenix.

Their online services page doesn't list prices. The
paper brochure does though:
Heart Scan - $450
Lung Scan - $295
Heart & Lung Scan - $595
Whole Body Health Scan - $960

They don't require a doctor's referral. They give you a
consultation along with take-home hi-res images. Not sure
if they give hardcopies, electronic copies (preferable), or
both. Probably hardcopies.
