While January is Firefighter Cancer Awareness Month, the reality is that awareness and early detection matter year-round.
At MRI Wellness, we stand with our firefighters. Full-body MRI offers a safe, radiation-free way to detect disease early—when it’s most treatable.
🔥 Cancer causes nearly 70% of career firefighter deaths
🔥 Firefighters are 4x more likely to be diagnosed with cancer
🔥 And 3x more likely to die from it
🔥 Ongoing exposure to smoke, toxic chemicals, and carcinogens increases the risk of cancers like lung cancer, mesothelioma, and leukemia
Many of these cancers develop silently, showing little to no symptoms until later stages—which is why early detection saves lives.
