Body Scan for Early Detection

No prescription is needed for a body scan.. This is one of the most efficient health assessment tools that appears to be under utilized by the medical profession (fear of finding stuff they are unable to answer?). It is rather affordable, however, results yielded may pave the way for more expensive tests.

Reasons you should have a body scan:
_early detection of disease
_baseline exam for future reference & comparison
_follow chronic disease & abnormal findings like incidentalomas

Physical exams fail to pick up disease at the earliest possible stage. Total body scanning in conjunction with a physical exam and blood tests increase the likelihood that health issues will be detected earlier.

Best health!
