Hiatal hernia

Chest

Abdomen & Pelvis

A hiatal hernia happens when part of the stomach pushes up through the diaphragm, the muscle that separates the chest and abdomen, into the chest. It is a common finding and most people have no symptoms. An MRI may show changes in the position of the stomach relative to the diaphragm. Identifying a hiatal hernia may help explain symptoms like reflux and allow for dietary and lifestyle management.

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.
