Whole Body MR Program
Early Diagnosis Saves Lives!
This approach tries to detect tumors in a number of organs throughout the body, including the brain and neck, before they grow and spread. People with a high risk of cancer can benefit from whole-body MRI in addition to routine check-ups.

Program Details
-
Whole Body MRI is a supplementary advanced check-up model for those who undergo frequent check-ups due to a risk of cancer or a concern about cancer.
-
In a single session, the entire body, including the brain and neck, is imaged.
-
It can be used as a check-up device. Although MRI has traditionally been used to scan only suspected abnormalities, it can now scan the entire body in a single session.
-
This imaging modality scans the body at 5-mm intervals and then uses an automatic software program to combine the digital data into a single image. The images are captured in about 45 minutes.
-
The goal of a whole-body MRI is to gather data before signs and symptoms appear and the tumor spreads. This test is also a possibility for persons who have a tumor in their family.
Which Organs Are Scanned With Whole Body MRI?
-
Whole Body MRI scans start in brain. Next, the neck, lungs and chest wall are imaged.
-
The procedure continues with the evaluation of liver, pancreas, kidney, adrenal gland and other intra-abdominal organs as well as urinary bladder.
-
Prostate and testicles are scanned in men, while uterus and ovaries are imaged in women. Moreover, bones and muscles (excluding arms) above knee level are assessed in the same session.
-
It needs to be combined with other conventional screening tests in order not to miss signs of an early-stage disease, when lung, breast, prostate and gastrointestinal tumors are screened.
