As with any medical test, these screening scans have limitations. Not all potential conditions of these organs can be assessed. Additionally, some body parts, although they may be included in the scan, are not well evaluated (including the lungs, large bowel (colon), and prostate gland). Whole body screening should be looked upon as a general overview, not a focused test.  Findings may require further evaluation with more dedicated diagnostic MRI or other imaging test (such as an x-ray, ultrasound or CT scan). We can help arrange this through your doctor.
