Prenuvo Whole Body Scan

There’s so many cool tests out these days that offer a deep dive into your health from different perspectives. One new offering around many cities in the USA is called Prenuvo. This was an easy appointment to make and a high end experience from start to finish. They ask to fill out a medical history form prior to going for your scan and at arrival check-in is a breeze with text reminders before hand explaining the procedure.

I was given my own dressing / waiting area with scrubs to change into including socks and a sports bra.

When I was called back (right on time by the way). I was scanned for metals to ensure my permanent bracelets and new earring were ok for the MRI machine. Then I was placed on the machine with earplugs and headphones and allowed to watch an episode of a Netflix show of my choice! This really made the 45min MRI experience much easier to keep your mind off the fact you’re in a tube and not allowed to move.

45min later, I was done! and within 24hrs my entire body scan and results were in my app ready to review and learn!
