Cardiac hypertrophy

Chest

Cardiac hypertrophy refers to thickening of the heart muscle, often in response to long-term high blood pressure or other cardiovascular stress. It can develop gradually without obvious symptoms. An MRI may show changes in the thickness of the heart wall. Identifying heart muscle thickening early allows for management of underlying causes that may help protect heart function.

SCReening explained
It’s important to understand that OneMRI's full-body scan is a general proactive health scan developed to include areas where preventative screening delivers the most meaningful insight in a way that is safe and non-invasive. The scan should be used to compliment other routine scans and screening. It should not replace standard screening protocols or targeted procedures as recommended by your doctor, specialist or health provider. Examples of these include mammogram, prostate examination, cervical screening, colonoscopy, and lung cancer screening.
