“There was this potential screening use case for MRI machines that was a thousand times bigger than the diagnostic use case.”

“And that's why the vast majority of the cancer that we catch is actually stage one or localized to the organ of origin.”

“And there's no one that's really spoken out against these technologies that actually has experienced it firsthand. In fact, most of those people bring their family members in and then start referring their patients.”

“I think one of the really fascinating things that we have discovered as we started to image more and more patients is we can see oftentimes at very early stages of chronic disease, 1020 years before you might ever feel symptoms.”

“We just had cancer aneurysms in maybe one in 20 to one in 25 people, depending on the location.”

“And I think these statements that were made actually have also been made about pap smear between when it was invented and when it was adopted, mammograms. So this is a very, very natural Point in the journey from a potentially breakthrough screening technology…”

“It's also an argument that makes sense when you start to consider these interventions at a population level, because at a population level, we're all a statistic. But at the individual level, we only have one life. You know, if we lose that one, we don't get a…”

“The average MRI procedure, about 10 to 15% of people can't get through it without pulling the escape hatch.”

“And at Prenuvo we have about one percent of people that can't get through a scan.”
