A 15-minute painless ultrasound that measures your aorta for aneurysm — at your Gorham home. $397 flat, no referral, cardiologist-reviewed results in 24–48 hours.
Why This Screening Matters
An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a bulge in the main artery running through your abdomen. Most people have no symptoms until the aneurysm ruptures — an event that is fatal in approximately 80% of cases. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force gives AAA screening a Grade B recommendation for men aged 65–75 who have ever smoked. It is one of the most cost-effective preventive interventions in cardiovascular medicine because a brief, inexpensive ultrasound can detect a life-threatening condition before it becomes an emergency.
For Gorham residents, BlackPoint eliminates every barrier. No referral, no hospital scheduling queue, no weekday drive to Portland. Emanuel Papadakis, RDCS, RVT, comes to your home with a Mindray diagnostic ultrasound system and completes the scan in 15 to 20 minutes. A board-certified cardiologist reviews the study and delivers a written report within 24 to 48 hours. Cost is $397 flat, HSA and FSA accepted.
Beyond the USPSTF criteria, AAA screening is also recommended for men over 60 with a first-degree relative who had an aortic aneurysm, and for any patient with a history of peripheral artery disease, longstanding hypertension, or tobacco use.
