In recent years, full-body scans have become a trendy health trend among the wealthy in places like Silicon Valley and Los Angeles. These scans, which use MRI technology, claim to detect potential health issues and promote preventive care. While some argue that full-body scans are unnecessary and can lead to unnecessary follow-up testing, proponents believe they can provide early detection for diseases like cancer. Start-ups like Prenuvo and Ezra are leading the way in providing these services, attracting wealthy investors and clients. While controversial, full-body scans may represent the next phase of the quantified self movement and personalized healthcare.
