Thorough prevention from 50.Calmly, at your own pace.

The full-body MRI uses no X-ray radiation and, in most cases, no contrast agent. You lie calmly on a padded table, the unit is well ventilated and the scan is never painful. The machine makes rhythmic knocking sounds, so you get ear protection and, if you like, music. If you tend to feel confined, tell us beforehand and we plan in more time and talk you through every step. We stay in contact with you via an intercom throughout the scan. Many who felt unsure beforehand find it calmer and more straightforward than they expected.

For some blood values, such as fasting glucose and blood lipids, you should arrive fasting on the day. That means no food for about 10 to 12 hours beforehand; water is fine. After the blood draw you have a relaxed breakfast with us, which is a fixed part of the day. You usually take your regular medication as normal. If you take blood thinners, diabetes medication or other long-term medication, it is best to discuss this with us in advance and we will tell you exactly what to keep in mind. You receive all details in writing well before your appointment.

Plan for a full but relaxed day. Core takes about six hours, Evolve and Ultimate around nine hours, all in a single appointment in Berlin-Charlottenburg. There are fixed breaks between examinations, and breakfast and lunch are included. There is no conveyor belt and no time pressure; the individual stations are scheduled so you never have to rush. On the same day or within a week you discuss your results in detail with a physician who puts them in context for your situation. If a full day in one go is difficult for you, let us know and we will find a comfortable solution together.

Yes, and for many people this is the best way in. In the free intro call we calmly work through all your questions before you decide on anything. We listen to what matters to you, explain the programs in plain language and tell you honestly what makes sense for you and where an examination adds little extra value. Only then do you decide, entirely without pressure. You book the intro call easily online at a time that suits you. If you prefer to start directly, you can of course reserve an appointment right away.

In most cases yes, and often precisely then. Known conditions such as high blood pressure, a previous heart attack, diabetes or a family history of cancer feed into the planning and help us set the right focus. The check does not replace treatment by your treating physicians; it adds a structured overall picture. Honesty in both directions matters: early detection improves chances but guarantees nothing, and not every finding needs treatment. That is exactly why a physician places every result in the context of your situation instead of leaving you alone with numbers. Feel free to bring your previous findings so we work on solid ground.

For a comprehensive picture from 55 we usually recommend Evolve. It includes the full-body MRI and the liquid biopsy for cancer early detection, both especially relevant at this stage of life, on top of the complete cardiovascular work-up. Ultimate goes further and adds medical genetics and microbiome analysis, useful for example with a family history or if you want the complete picture. Core is the calm entry point with more than 85 biomarkers and the functional baseline examinations. What suits you depends on your history and your questions. We are best placed to clarify that together in the free intro call before you commit.
