Total Body screening
Because prevention is always better than cure
Our total body screening assessment covers the following areas for detailed examination:
Skull and brain (MRI Scan)
The possible risks of cerebral infarct/ brain haemorrhage
Benign and malignant tumours
Infections
Obstructions or changes in the forms of the major blood vessels
Heart assessment with an exercise treadmill ECG (electrocardiogram) – looking for signs of ischaemic heart disease (angina)
Examination of the lungs with a ‘peak flow examination’ and spirometry, including:
FEV1
FVC
FEV1/FVC ratio
PEFR
Upper abdomen (MRI Scan)
Description of the organs of the upper abdomen
Tracing/exclusion of tumours in the liver, pancreas, kidneys and the gallbladder
Check up for gallstones
Check up of the spleen
Tracing of cysts
Checking and recognition of enlargements of the lymph glands
The condition of the aorta
Midsection of the spinal column
Male/female pelvis (lower abdomen) (MRI Scan)
Description of the organs of the lower abdomen such as the bladder, prostate, the uterus and the ovaries (gynaecological system)
The tracing of tumours, external changes and a prolapsed bladder
Tracing of cysts; recognition of enlargement of the lymph glands
The condition of the aorta
Control of the lower spinal column, the pelvis and hip joints
MRI Screenings
Our total body screening assessment uses state-of-the-art MRI imaging that is non-radiating (as opposed to CT scanning). Our 3-part private MRI scan of the body includes the brain, abdomen and pelvis, and is complemented by an exercise treadmill ECG test (for angina), lung function assessment and a comprehensive laboratory testing of blood, stool and urine.
Our private MRI scans are done locally in Nottingham at our private MRI unit, and the results are typically available within 2 – 3 days, having been reported by the various consultant radiologists specialising in each area assessed.
Our private MRI scan in the UK will include detailed examinations of the:
Brain – vessels, signs of atrophy (ageing), any signs of cysts, aneurysms or tumours.
Upper abdomen – including liver, kidneys, spleen, pancreas, aorta, blood vessels
Male/female pelvis (lower abdomen).
