Important before booking

Whole-body MRI is a broad screening overview, not a diagnosis or a guarantee of health. For people without symptoms or specific risk factors, evidence of benefit remains limited. It can miss disease and may find incidental abnormalities that need additional tests. If you have symptoms, contact a clinician locally instead of relying on a travel screening.

MRI-only from US$690

A separate MRI-only option is available before adding ultrasound, CT or other modalities.

🧾

Scope before payment

Compare the included studies, ionizing-radiation flag, total package price and deposit.

Choose by scope, not age

The final protocol should follow your history, organs, prior screening and risk factors. A higher tier is not automatically better.

🧲 MRI / ultrasound

MRI and ultrasound do not use ionizing radiation. MRI still requires safety screening for implants, pregnancy, claustrophobia and any planned contrast.

⚠ CT / DXA / mammography / PET-CT

These modalities use ionizing radiation. They should be added only when a clinician confirms an appropriate screening or diagnostic indication.
