Practical questions about choosing, preparing for and reviewing this test.
Do I need a consultation or referral?
You can order without booking a paid consultation. A results consultation is optional and costs $49 once per order. Whole Body MRI includes its pre-scan and results appointments in the package price. Where the laboratory requires a practitioner request form, this is arranged as part of the ordering process.
Should I change medicines or supplements before testing?
Do not stop prescribed medicines on your own. Tell your practitioner what you take and follow the preparation instructions for this test. Timing, fasting and other requirements depend on the sample and markers being measured.
Does the test tell me what treatment I need?
A result is one part of an assessment. A qualified practitioner should interpret it alongside your symptoms, history and medicines. Check whether a results consultation is included in your purchase or needs to be booked separately.
