Full Episode
My experience had been pretty underwhelming in the context of preventive care. It was a checkout that was absent any real unique insight that I didn't really know myself. I wanted to go a layer deeper.
Celebrities like Kim Kardashian have jumped on the wave of support of a new kind of preventative care.
It comes with a hefty price tag. We're talking about Pernuvo's full-body MRI scans.
One could hypothesize that I'm a visitor from another planet, and on my planet, we screen everyone. You know, I take you back to my plant and say, well, let me propose to you that you don't screen anyone. My population would laugh you off the planet.
Why are there no major United States organizations that are recommending this?
I don't think there's any evidence that consumers consider themselves harmed by these screenings.
The burden should fall when you're testing healthy people to prove that it causes benefit rather to prove that it causes harm. Welcome to the Checkup Podcast. Today, my guest is Andrew Lacey, CEO of Pernuvo, a company that's at the forefront of whole body MRI scanning, a technology that aims to catch potential health issues before they become serious problems.
You may have recently seen the company's technology in headlines or on Kim Kardashian's Instagram, spurring excitement, intrigue, and even some controversy. You see, major medical organizations, including the American College of Radiology and the United States Preventive Service Task Force do not recommend routine whole body scans for people without symptoms or specific risk factors.
There are concerns about false positives, unnecessary follow-up procedures, the cost effectiveness, and most importantly, if the proposed benefits actually outweigh the risks. Despite that, advocates of this technology argue that those concerns are overblown and that the scans can provide peace of mind and potentially detect conditions early when they're most treatable.
