MRI & CTs for early detection

Designed to screen for signs of potential cancer and hundreds of medical conditions.

Don’t wait for symptoms

Advanced scans that screen for hundreds of conditions. Catch potential issues early—often before symptoms appear.

  • Safe: MRIs use magnets and radio waves to take images, so you aren't exposed to ionizing radiation.
  • Fast: MRIs take as little as 22 minutes to complete.
  • Powerful: Uses FDA-cleared AI image enhancement.

Age 54

I’m a lifelong athlete and I’ve always taken my health seriously so I was shocked that my scan showed stage 3 kidney tumors on both kidneys. My physician says taking the scan has given me a chance for a longer life.

FAQs

What is an MRI?

MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. An MRI machine is a giant magnet that uses radio waves to take pictures of your body’s organs and structures. It’s safe, as long as you don’t have any metallic implants that are incompatible with MRI scanning (e.g. a pacemaker or certain metallic orthopedic implants). Because of the magnetic field, you may not wear any jewelry or clothing that have metallic components during your MRI.

How do Function members add an MRI or CT?

Are MRIs safe?

Yes, MRIs have been around since the 1980s and have a safe track record (and added bonus: pain-free). Unlike other medical imaging procedures such as CT (CAT scan) and X-ray, MRIs don’t expose you to ionizing radiation.

How long after my MRI do I get the results?

After you complete your MRI, you will receive your Function Report within 7-10 days of your MRI. You will receive an email when your report is ready. Your Radiology Report is typically made available prior to your full Function Report.

Is an MRI covered by insurance?

At this time, Function is offered directly to consumers, and you can use HSA/FSA dollars to pay for your MRI. We’re working with payers to get Function included in health plans. Sign up for our newsletter for updates on our insurance efforts.

What does the MRI look for?

Function is a service designed to screen adults (18 years and older) for early cancer and early disease and is for individuals who want to be proactive with their health and get an advantage by looking inside their body. We do this with MRI to quickly and accurately look at your major organs (aside from the breasts, lungs, and heart) from the top of your head to the base of your pelvis.

What is a CT? What is a low-dose CT (LDCT)?

CT stands for Computed Tomography. A CT scanner uses the combination of X-ray with computer processing to take pictures of your body’s organs and structures. Unlike MRI, it does require the use of ionizing radiation (X-rays), which is potentially harmful. An LDCT uses much less ionizing radiation than a regular CT. The LDCT is the gold standard for screening purposes for the lungs and is the CT imaging technique that Function uses.
