Not every health threat is easy to spot. Screening tests can prevent some cancers or catch them early, often before symptoms appear and when treatment is more likely to work best. Talk with your doctor about which screenings are right for you and when to get them. Another threat that's easy to miss: too much UV exposure from the sun, which can lead to skin cancer. Simple options like shade, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, protective clothing, and broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF 15 or higher can help lower your risk. #SharkWeek# #ChronicDisease# #CatchCancerEarly# #CancerScreening# #CancerPrevention#

Cancer Screening Collapsed in 2020. The Diagnoses Showed Up Later. Mammography, colonoscopy, PSA testing — all fell sharply during the shutdowns, and many systems never returned to baseline. Cancer doesn’t pause for a screening gap. It keeps growing while undetected. The documented result is STAGE SHIFT: found later, higher grade, fewer options. Asking what changed about cancer in this era? That’s a measured answer with an obvious mechanism. #MedicalFreedom#

Yesterday I did a proactive whole-body MRI at @prenuvo for early cancer screening and other diseases. Luckily no worrisome or high risk findings. I had a few minor findings (common and benign things), and the explanation and reassurance was very well done in the report. The MRI even detected a lingering sinus infection I've had for the past 4 weeks! The images you get of your body are incredible too. It can't possibly hurt (except the pocket; it's $2,500) to do these regularly and monitor changes over time. Their MRI setup is quite nice too. They are a bit more spacious than the ones I've seen at hospitals, but most importantly they put special glasses on you with a 45° mirror that lets you watch a movie projected behind you. (You choose the movie/show.) Makes a huge difference for claustrophobia because the space feels much bigger when looking through the mirror. It's also nice you can see a clock in the screen, so you know approximately how much time you have remaining inside the magnet. Overall, impressed.
