Future of Radiology with AI
- Radiology is unlikely to be replaced by AI but will evolve to focus on complex diagnostics and patient interaction.

Benefits of Early Cancer Detection
- Early cancer detection via whole-body MRI shows promising reduced mortality, especially in high-risk populations.
- Skepticism about overdiagnosis ignores benefits of removing cancers early and often conflicts with financial incentives in healthcare.
What to Expect During Prenuvo Scan
- Expect a 40-45 minute full body MRI scan with a patient-friendly experience including entertainment.
