A CT scan for calcium scoring is around $100 in the US- and that includes radiologist time to interpret the scan. That is not a negotiated price either- insurance does not cover such scans.

Having said that, no healthcare imaging facility would agree to scan a random cable that someone brought in off the street- unless you knew someone. And then it would probably be free because the marginal cost of running a scan is very low with no radiologist time.

The dollars quoted are in terms of purchasing power in the United States as of 2011.

If you have any assets (401k, savings, stocks, car, etc) you should consider renter's insurance because it will offer liability protection. If a visitor is injured in your home and you are found legally responsible you could lose everything.
