MRI4Life = Prevention4Life

The Process

A comprehensive MRI imaging-based health assessment that screens for the leading causes of death or disability: Cancer, Cardiovascular disease, Aneurysm, Stroke as well as hundreds of other conditions.

Early Detection provides the very best outcomes

Every MRI4Life program participant takes part in a carefully planned 3-part process:

  • The Scan: The Full-Body MRI4Life Scan takes about an hour, then a short break to stretch and set up our Heart-Health Calcium Scoring, which takes about 10 minutes. Total time in the clinic is about 90 minutes, door to door.
  • The Read: Your images will be sent to a specialized radiologist for reading and interpretation. Over the next 7-10 days they will analyze the images and build an incredibly detailed and personalized report for you. As soon as they are ready, we will contact you to schedule your consultation.
  • The Consultation: A personalized 1-on-1 consultation with Dr. Suber’s team completes the process with a review of the report and carefully crafted follow-up plan of action. You will come away from the process with no questions about the next steps.

Personal Touch and Unprecedented Access

Throughout these steps and beyond you will have direct access to our MRI4Life Program Director who will personally coordinate every aspect. We take pride in being available to you; from our Program Director to our Technologists to your Provider Consultation – Experienced professionals working to put you in charge of your health journey with a comprehensive MRI process.

Whole-Body Health

Our program is designed for the whole body; the MRI4Life program fits perfectly with Dr. Suber’s training as an Osteopathic Physician; analyzing all systems together, not focusing on one symptom. Rather than simply reacting to symptoms as they may crop up, our program is focused on prevention and whole body-health for a comprehensive MRI experience.

Patient Centered

Advanced Medical Imaging’s MRI room was designed with natural light and the largest, quietest open-bore MRI for your comfort and ease. Let our technicians help you get comfortable, choose your favorite music, and let the technology do its job. Many of our patients are so relaxed they fall asleep during the scan!

What’s the process like?

Before your scan

Safety Screening

Fill out our safety questionnaire and our staff will work with you to make sure you’re safe to get an MRI.

Context

Fill out a medical intake form to provide our radiologists proper context into your health history.

Breathe easy

If you deal with anxiety or claustrophobia, our medical team will work with you to prescribe a sedative.

Prepare

If possible, don’t eat or drink a few hours prior to your scan and arrive 15-30 minutes prior your appointment.

At your scan

Confirm physician info

Arrive 15 minutes early to finish up any paperwork needed and make sure to provide your physician’s information so we can send them a copy of your report.

Slip into comfort

Change into scrubs (like comfortable pajamas) and be sure to remove any other metallic objects like jewelry. Your personal items, including phone, will be locked in your dressing room in our secure area during your scan.

Step by step

Pick your favorite music playlist and let our technicians help you relax while they position you for the scans. Just prior to the scan our technologists will place thick pads called coils around your head and body. These coils help focus the images.

Your scan is done in about an hour.

The scanner is climate controlled with fresh, cool air for your comfort, and you will always be in contact with an MRI technologist through a two-way intercom if there is anything you need. Throughout the scan, you technologist will be checking in with you.

After your scan

Next steps

Right after your scan, our Program Director will provide you with an outline of the next steps. Your report will be ready within a couple of weeks, just prior to your consultation.
