(2 answers)
Is it possible to have both a full, comprehensive heart scan and a full abdominal or body scan with an MRI, instead of a CT scan, that is just as reliable, if not more so than the CT scan? I want to avoid the radiation of the CT, but want accuracy.

Heart disease and cancer run in my family, so I want a body scan to screen for potential problems. Does my primary care physician need to order a body scan for me, or can I schedule one on my own?
