Hello everyone,

 

I recently came across a few companies that do full body preventive MRI screens as a tool for early disease detection....One was called Health Nucleus (part of Human Longevity Inc), and the others were Within Health (early stage startup in NYC) and Ezra (another early stage startup in NYC). 

 

The claim is a 60 min full body scan to detect cancers, diseases, inflammation or obstructive processes in your head, neck, chest, abdomen, pelvic, prostate / uterus / ovaries, and bones. 

 

Is this something people would do to catch things early? Why / why not? 

 

I'm getting mixed reviews from people - some say its beneficial, others say its dangerous because of an incidental findings rate.

I just saw this post, which is interesting. What did you find out about whole body MRIs?
