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.
