We authorise and report every scan.
Each figure is a "from" price: the exact cost depends on which imaging partner and location you use (we choose it with you by where you are and what's available soonest), and it is confirmed with you before anything is booked.
A prostate MRI costs about the same as a core whole-body survey because a detailed, contrast-enhanced scan of one organ, read to a cancer-detection standard, takes more scanner time and specialist reporting than a quick look across the whole body. What you pay follows the detail and the reporting, not the area scanned. A whole-body scan can also pick up harmless things that then need following up, so we talk it through with you first.
