Team to perform stroke screenings

Lawrence residents who want to know their risk of stroke can be screened starting at 9 a.m. Saturday, at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 6001 W. 15th St.

Life Line Screening of America is sending a team trained in ultrasound to do the screenings, which include a scan for blocked arteries, aortic aneurysms and hardening of the arteries in the legs.

Bone density screening also will be available.

Other services offered include a cholesterol test and a prostate cancer risk-assessment.

Screenings last about 10 minutes and cost $99 for the vascular screening and $125 for both screenings.

Preregistration is required. Call (800) 643-6188 to make an appointment.
