In this episode of The ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฒ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ podcast, we sit down with Andrew Lacy, Founder and CEO, and Dr. Tahreema Matin, UK Medical Director at Prenuvo, to touch upon one of the most talked-about (and argued-about) trends in healthcare right now: scanning "๐ก๐๐๐ฅ๐ญ๐ก๐ฒ" ๐ฉ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ from head to toe.ย
We get into what a ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐-๐๐จ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐ actually involves, how it is different from a normal diagnostic scan, and whether there's enough evidence yet to justifyย ๐ฌ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ง๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ย who have relatively no symptoms at all.
Andrew and Dr. Matin don't shy away from the "tougher" questions either - ๐ข๐ง๐๐ข๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ฅ ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฌ, false alarms, and the fear of turning prevention into unnecessary anxiety.
We also talk honestly about who can actually access this kind of procedure, and whether it's fair to call itย ๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฐ.
As usual, if you've got thoughts on preventative imaging, whole-body MRI, or where you think this trend is really heading, drop them in the comments and join the conversation!ย
