Ezra Launches 3T MRI/CT Combination for Full-Body Scans
The Ezra Blueprint scan reportedly includes quantitative brain measurements, coronary calcium scoring (CAC) and a full-body MRI that provides screening for over 500 conditions.
Offering a combination of 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) that can provide fatty liver assessment, lung cancer screening and aneurysm detection with two hour-long appointments, Ezra has launched the Ezra Blueprint scan.
The Ezra Blueprint scan reportedly includes neurodegenerative assessment with brain MRI, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered quantification of subcutaneous fat and MRI angiography for possible diagnosis of brain aneurysm and carotid artery disease, according to Ezra, the developer of the Ezra Blueprint.

Other features included in the Ezra Blueprint are high-resolution imaging of knee and hip joints, CT-based coronary calcium scoring (CAC) and full-body MRI that enables screening of over 500 conditions, according to Ezra.
After two 60-minute appointments to complete Ezra Blueprint scanning, Ezra said patients will subsequently receive a detailed radiology report and a consultation review by medical providers associated with Ezra.
