Re: [SPAM] Brain Matters/Denver/Spect Scans

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Yes, Brain Matters has their own system of doing things that involves 2 scans.

I believe one is with the brain at rest and the other with the brain active?

(doing something on the computer maybe). I think that this is right. I'm sure

that the Brain Matters website would offer more information.

Dr. Goldberg only requires one neurospect and whether you get the scan done at a

Brain Matters clinic or at Dr. Uszler's office, it is Dr. Uszler that interprets

it. Brain Matters has been working with Dr. Goldberg for a long time (before

they were called Brain Matters) and so if you are one of his patients, you

simply call up and let them know you work with Dr. Goldberg and they arrange to

take the one scan for you. I went to the one in Denver and got one scan done.

Insurance paid for most of it and Brain Matters did not bill me for the rest.

They said that if the insurance pays as much as their unisured rate that they

don't bill patients for the difference. I thought that this was nice. I did

not leave the clinic with pictures in hand though. I had it mailed to me within

a couple of weeks. When you call Brain Matters, they will check with your

insurance ahead of time and let you know what it will cost you (if anything).

Hope this helps.

[sPAM] Brain Matters/Denver/Spect Scans

Hello. I just met a mom who had her son out at the Sensory Learning

Center in Denver for 6 weeks and while she was there she had a SPECT

done at the new Brain Matters center in Denver. She is not a

patient, apparently her parents heard about it and offered to pay for

a SPECT. Anyway, her child is 9, he went in for 2 SPECTS, one the

first day, second the next day. It cost $3600. She was given a big

booklet that shows pictures of the scans and information relating to

it. My question is this, is this the process that everyone goes

through, are 2 scans required for an adequate reading? Is $3600 what

parents are paying for this? Has anyone had a child scanned in

Denver? Thanks for any information.

Does this really do anything to help? Its kinda like people with chemical

injury having their brains looked at. The brain is still injured. The scan

usually doesn't reveal anything with pesticide injury. (which Dr.'s overlook or

refuse to recognize)

They have done two MRI's on me and found nothing. That is because I have

chemical injury.

Hope it helps.

Scientists at the Hopkins University School of Medicine say that a few

squares of chocolate a day can reduce the risk of a heart attack by almost 50

per cent in some cases.
