Full Body vs. Targeted Scan: What’s the Difference?

At Dragonfly, we offer two types of scans. The right one depends on what you’re looking for.
Full-Body Scan
This scan provides a broad overview of your body, evaluating multiple regions in one session. It’s designed to help identify unexpected findings or early changes and offer general insight and peace of mind — rather than an in-depth evaluation of one specific concern.
Targeted Scan
This scan focuses on a specific area of the body when there’s a symptom, concern, or known issue that needs closer evaluation. Because it concentrates on one region, it provides more detailed information for that particular area.
In short:
🔷 A full-body scan = wider coverage
🔷 A targeted scan = deeper detail in one area

Even if your full-body scan is clear, it does not replace routine screenings with your primary care provider. We still recommend keeping up with guideline-based tests such as:
• Prostate and colon cancer screenings
• Mammograms and other breast cancer screening

Both scans serve different purposes. Choosing the right one depends on your health goals — whether you’re looking for a general overview or answers about a specific concern.

Ever wondered what actually happens during an MRI?

An MRI uses advanced magnetic technology to create clear, detailed images of your organs, tissues, and bones — without radiation. During the scan, you’ll relax on a table as it gently moves into the scanner. Staying still helps ensure the most accurate images.
To make the experience more comfortable, you’ll be provided with headphones and can listen to music or watch a movie during your scan.

Most scans take 30–60 minutes, depending on what’s being evaluated. The experience is safe, painless, and non-invasive, designed to give a clear view of what’s happening inside your body.

MRI is a powerful tool for early awareness and peace of mind. When you know more, you can take more informed steps for your health.

There’s a common misconception that comprehensive health screening is only for older adults. At Dragonfly Scan, we believe understanding your body shouldn’t wait for a symptom to appear.

Whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or 40s, a full-body MRI offers more than data. It offers peace of mind and a clear baseline for your future health.

From accounting for family history, to supporting an active or athletic lifestyle, to simply establishing a personal health baseline, we help you see what’s happening inside your body today.

Don’t wait for a reason to prioritize your well-being.

Catch things early. Understand your baseline. Invest in your future self.

Ben Hogan was the picture of health at 61, or so he thought.

He felt great, stayed active, and had no symptoms raising red flags.

But when he chose to take a deeper look with advanced imaging, the scan revealed something no routine checkup had caught:

Stage 1 prostate cancer.

Recently featured on ABC7, Dragonfly scans helped uncover what traditional checkups can miss — identifying concerns before symptoms appear. For Ben, early awareness meant early action, when treatment is often most effective.

“I’m glad that we did it. I was lucky. It changed my life.”

Preventive imaging can provide valuable insight into areas such as the prostate, liver, kidneys, spine, lungs, heart, and brain — helping reveal changes that may be associated with serious conditions, including cardiovascular disease and early cognitive decline.

We’re also honored that ABC7 reporter Hillary Floren chose to experience a Dragonfly scan herself and openly share her journey.

Being in love doesn’t just feel good.

It actually supports your health.

Studies show it can strengthen your immune system, lower the risk of heart disease, help your body recover faster after injury, and even reduce overall mortality.

How?

Simply being near your partner changes how your body responds.

Oxytocin increases ➡️ which helps calm your nervous system.
Cortisol drops ➡️ lowering inflammation.
Dopamine rises ➡️ improving mood and mental clarity.

All of that sends one clear signal to your body: you’re safe.

This Valentine’s Day, bundle with a partner and invest in your health together.

"It shows you wanna do everything you can to continue life together."

Walter and Dorothy have been married for nearly 41 years, weathering life's challenges together: including illness and cancer.

This Valentine's Day, they chose something more meaningful than flowers and chocolates...preventive health screenings at Dragonfly Scan.

"Any time with him is worth it," Dorothy shared. "This will give us a chance to see if there are some heart issues or brain issues."

The scans came back with good results, bringing shared relief and renewed promises to keep showing up for one another.

Recently featured on local news in Plano, their story highlights what matters most: detecting health risks before symptoms appear. As doctors remind us, knowing your weight or cholesterol matters, but routine advanced imaging catches serious problems early, when treatment is most effective.

Dragonfly Scan's modern, radiation-free MRI technology provides a non-invasive way to see inside the body, examining the prostate, liver, kidneys, spine, lungs, heart, and brain: helping uncover health risks before symptoms ever appear.

"The greatest gift might just be the one that keeps your heart beating longer together."

Your health is priceless. Early insight can change everything.

Did you know some serious health issues show zero symptoms?

Here are a few that can develop without you knowing.

1️⃣ Aneurysms
Aneurysms are bulges in weakened blood vessels that can grow silently over time. Many people feel completely normal until one ruptures, which can become a medical emergency with no warning signs beforehand.

2️⃣ Kidney Disease
Early-stage kidney disease often has no noticeable symptoms. Fatigue, swelling, or changes in urination typically appear much later, after significant damage has already occurred.

3️⃣ Certain Cancers
Some cancers can progress quietly in the body without pain or obvious changes. By the time symptoms appear, the disease may already be advanced, which is why early detection matters.

4️⃣ Brain and Spinal Cysts
These cysts can exist for years without causing headaches, pain, or neurological symptoms. Many are only discovered through imaging done for unrelated reasons.

That’s why advanced imaging can play such an important role in early detection, helping identify potential issues before symptoms appear and giving people more time and options to act.

Insight leads to confidence.

Neuropathy symptoms don’t always show up where you’d expect.
For many people, nerve issues develop quietly and far earlier than they realize.

Studies show that 62% of older adults have peripheral neuropathy, yet a large number of cases go undiagnosed or unreported until serious complications appear.

Even among those who are aware something is wrong, the cause often remains unclear.

Up to 46% of neuropathy cases have no identifiable cause and are labeled idiopathic despite extensive testing.

This matters because untreated neuropathy is linked to real risks.
A 3.7x higher risk of bone fractures.
A 5.3x higher risk of chronic sleep disorders.

Plus the ongoing discomfort of numbness, tingling, burning, and weakness in the limbs.

Common signs can include sensory changes like pins and needles or reduced ability to feel temperature, often starting in the hands or feet.

These changes are not simply a normal part of aging.

Nerve damage often develops slowly over years, influenced by inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar instability, and reduced circulation. By the time symptoms feel obvious, nerves have often been under stress for a long time.

The good news is that earlier insight opens the door to more options.

Whole body MRI can help identify structural and systemic conditions that may be contributing to nerve symptoms, especially when the cause is unclear. Early clarity helps guide next steps, rule out serious concerns, and provide direction when symptoms do not have a simple explanation.

If something feels off, paying attention sooner can make a meaningful difference.
