A powerful preventative tool. When used with purpose.

Now it's here!
Across Los Angeles, London, and Sydney, the world’s most health-conscious people are getting into MRI tunnels — not because they’re sick, but because they want to stay well. Now, it’s available in here.
Whole Body MRI Wellness Scans show every organ, vessel, and structure — without radiation — revealing what routine checks can’t. But technology alone isn’t enough. At Autonomy, screening is meaningful only when guided by clinical purpose and context.
The Autonomy standard
We refer clients for Whole Body MRI only once we understand their metabolic health, inflammation, sleep, recovery, and symptoms through our Early Wins program. The scan then connects biomarkers with organ-level insight.
Every client receives:
A full radiologist report and same-day consult
Autonomy physician review and clinical plan
Clear guidance on what matters
Fast access to trusted specialists
Benefits and balance
Whole Body MRI can reveal early organ or tissue change long before symptoms appear — enabling timely prevention. Yet sensitive imaging may also detect harmless findings that cause anxiety if not expertly interpreted. The real risk isn’t the scan — it’s misinterpretation.
Beyond the scan
Findings like early vascular, liver, or joint inflammation can often be reversed through improved strength, nutrition, sleep, and stress response. The scan maps the terrain — your lifestyle changes determine the direction.
Responsible innovation for Aotearoa
Autonomy and Astra Radiology are setting the standard for proactive MRI-based healthcare: clinician-led access, expert interpretation, same-day education, and structured clinical follow-up.
Our view
Whole Body MRI Wellness Screening isn’t the whole answer, but used with purpose and expert support, it can deliver clarity, motivation, and a path to longer, healthier living.
At Autonomy, we screen with purpose — protecting your potential with the aim of extending the years you can live well.
