Whole-body scans are highly useful for the diagnosis of certain diseases. Depending on the type of scan, the area of the body being scanned, and the type of disease, a range of common findings may be seen. These can include cancerous or non-cancerous tumors, inflammation, abnormalities in bone density, or heart or lung blockages. Detecting cancer early on a scan when it is most treatable is especially beneficial. Additionally, assessing bone density can help identify osteoporosis, a disease characterized by weakened and fragile bones.

Compared to an MRI, an Advanced Body Scan CT scan has the benefit of being able to image the heart and the vessels around it. This is a huge advantage as heart disease is the leading cause of death in America. Our scan is also able to detect up to 500 different types of cancers, thus aiding early detection and improving health outcomes.

Moreover, CT scans are often considered the gold standard for imaging the heart, making it a preferable option over an MRI. In terms of convenience and time, our scan only takes a matter of minutes, with no needles or preparation required, whereas an MRI may take anywhere from 45 minutes to 75 minutes.

Additionally, for people who suffer from claustrophobia, completing an MRI scan can be very challenging.

To provide comfort for you, our sophisticated, non-invasive advanced scan requires no prior preparations like injections, dyes, or fasting. As you lie on the table, the entire procedure will only take five minutes, with your feet entering first. Our Advanced Scanner will promptly scan your organs, such as your heart and its surrounding vessels, for potential signs of cancer, heart disease, and numerous other illnesses.

This scan will acquire helical images of your organs and vessels to spot any possible precursors of these diseases. Our Advanced Scan has the ability to detect up to 500 types of cancers and diseases.

A whole-body CT scan, also known as a CT Body Scan, is a valuable tool for detecting potential health issues at an early stage.  The following individuals may benefit from a whole-body CT scan:

• Asymptomatic Individuals with Risk Factors: People with a family history of certain diseases, such as cancer or heart disease, may consider getting a whole-body CT scan to identify potential early signs or genetic predispositions.
• Smokers and Former Smokers: Current and former smokers are at a higher risk of developing lung cancer and other respiratory issues. A whole-body CT scan can help detect lung abnormalities and identify potential issues early on.
• Individuals with Specific Symptoms: In some cases, individuals experiencing unexplained symptoms, such as persistent pain, weight loss, or other concerning issues, may be advised to undergo a whole-body CT scan to investigate the cause.
• High-Risk Occupational Exposure: Certain professions expose individuals to substances or conditions that may increase the risk of specific diseases. Those with high-risk occupational exposure may consider regular whole-body CT scans as part of their health monitoring.
• Those with Chronic Conditions: People with chronic conditions like autoimmune diseases or chronic infections may consider whole-body CT scans to monitor disease progression and potential complications.

• Individuals with Known Health Conditions: People with certain existing health conditions, such as a history of cancer, heart disease, or kidney problems, may benefit from regular whole-body CT scans to monitor disease progression or detect potential recurrences.
• Middle-Aged and Older Adults: As people age, the risk of developing various health issues increases. Middle-aged and older adults may choose to undergo whole-body CT scans as part of their preventive healthcare strategy.
• Individuals Considering Lifestyle Changes: People planning to make significant lifestyle changes, such as starting a new exercise routine, quitting smoking, or altering their diet, may consider getting a baseline whole-body CT scan to track improvements in their health over time.
• Athletes and Fitness Enthusiasts: Athletes and those actively engaged in intense physical activities may use whole-body CT scans to assess potential sports-related injuries or monitor their musculoskeletal health.
• Individuals with Concerns about Osteoporosis: Whole-body CT scans can help assess bone density and detect early signs of osteoporosis, a condition characterized by weakened bones.
• Individuals with Unexplained Weight Loss: Sudden and unexplained weight loss could be a sign of an underlying health issue. Whole-body CT scans can help identify potential causes.
• People with a History of Environmental Exposure: Individuals who have lived in or near areas with environmental contaminants or pollutants may opt for whole-body CT scans to assess any potential health risks.
• Individuals Planning Major Medical Procedures: People scheduled for extensive surgeries or organ transplants may undergo whole-body CT scans to assess their overall health status before the procedure.
• Those Seeking Peace of Mind: Some individuals may choose to have a whole-body CT scan simply for peace of mind, especially if they have concerns about their health and want a comprehensive evaluation.
