Whole Body MRI is one of the most recent imaging techniques and it is used for diagnosing tumors in early stage. Whole body is scanned in approximately 40-45 minutes. Patients are not exposed to radiation in Whole Body MRI scans, as is the case with other MRI scans.
Although MRI has been used, to date, for suspected lesions, specific software is developed that enables cross-sectional imaging of whole body in a single session.
This method aims to diagnose tumors in various organs of the body, including brain and neck, in early stages, before they grow and spread.
