Introduction
Imagine a quick, painless scan that identifies health risks years before they manifest. Thanks to Dr. Rachel Liu, a diagnostic radiologist and founder of ScanWell Centers, this is becoming a reality. Her non-invasive full-body MRI protocol—once reserved for elite athletes and celebrities—is now being offered to the general public at an affordable cost.
Detecting the Undetectable
“We catch tumors under 1cm, fatty liver before symptoms, and even early signs of osteoporosis,” says Dr. Liu. Her scans look for abnormalities in soft tissue, organs, and blood flow—without radiation exposure.
From Reactive to Proactive
In early trials, Liu’s team found “silent conditions” in 1 out of every 6 seemingly healthy patients. “It’s not about causing fear,” she clarifies. “It’s about giving people the data to act early—when it matters most.”
A New Era of Annual Checkups
With clinics opening in five major cities and telehealth follow-ups provided, Dr. Liu’s model could redefine the annual physical. “The future of prevention is imaging plus insight,” she says.
