REDWOOD CITY, CA (April 7, 2025) – Prenuvo, the leader in proactive whole-body MRI screening, today announced the opening of its first clinic in Las Vegas, marking its first entry in Nevada.  

The new Prenuvo clinic at 350 S Rampart Blvd will provide residents with radiation-free, non-invasive, whole-body MRI scans designed to detect cancers, aneurysms, and hundreds of health conditions before symptoms appear. Each scan takes less than an hour, providing a comprehensive, holistic view of the body. 

“We’re thrilled to join the Las Vegas community and offer residents a powerful tool to stay ahead of their health,” said Andrew Lacy, Founder and CEO of Prenuvo. “Our goal is to make preventative healthcare as routine as a yearly check-up, and we are excited to bring this technology to the Las Vegas community.”

The Prenuvo mission is already changing lives. After her mother died unexpectedly from a heart attack, Sagan, a wife and mother of two, opted for a Prenuvo scan. The MRI showed Sagan had a brain aneurysm. With these results, she was able to contact her healthcare provider and schedule life-saving surgery. Sagan credits Prenuvo with saving her life. “It's so important for people to understand that it's not a scan just for you. It gave my kids a mom,” said Saagan.

Las Vegas is one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the United States, home to over 660,000 residents, with 61% between the ages of 18 and 64, according to the census reporter. As the city continues to expand and evolve, so does its approach to health. More residents are seeking tools that support longevity, independence, and early detection of potential health issues. Prenuvo is opening its doors to empower the growing Las Vegas community with an accessible, proactive solution to manage their long-term health so people can keep showing up for the careers, families, and lives they love.

REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Prenuvo, the leader in proactive whole-body MRI screening, today disclosed that it quietly raised $120M as part of Series B fundraising during 2024, demonstrating its category leadership in preventative health. The company has identified over 1.4 million personalized health insights across its member base, highlighting the critical role of early detection. This milestone comes as Prenuvo surpassed 110,000 members and secured FDA clearance for its AI-powered Prenuvo Body Composition report.

“Prenuvo is leading a movement to make proactive healthcare accessible and transformative for everyone,” said Andrew Lacy, CEO of Prenuvo Inc. “We’re introducing a new approach to early detection that empowers individuals to take control of their health before symptoms emerge. This isn’t just about healthcare; it’s about reimagining how we approach health, using cutting-edge technology and world-class expertise to prevent disease and help people live longer, healthier lives.”

The round, co-led by Forerunner Ventures, Left Lane Capital, and existing investor Felicis, has accelerated Prenuvo’s augmentation of its core industry-leading whole-body MRI screening with additional modalities and analyses of the human body.

Innovative Product Expansion

Prenuvo today announced FDA clearance for its AI-powered Prenuvo Body Composition report, marking a significant milestone in the company’s growth. Building on this momentum, Prenuvo introduces three major advances:

• FDA-cleared, AI-powered whole-body composition analysis platform that is non-invasive and delivers precise, actionable, and quantitative data on visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, liver fat, muscle volumes, as well as the volume of vital abdominal organs – providing patients with a personalized report to make informed lifestyle choices and proactive health decisions.
• Groundbreaking new brain health scan that equips patients with critical data on brain function, cognitive health, and early indicators of neurodegenerative conditions.
• Comprehensive functional and conventional blood bio-marker assessment that uses a custom built panel of blood tests to provide insights into metabolic, cardiovascular, hormonal, and immune health. Designed to work symbiotically with imaging to deepen health insights.

These new capabilities will launch immediately in a bundled offering called Prenuvo Enhanced in Silicon Valley, Los Angeles and New York locations, with other locations offering these enhanced screenings in the spring.

“Last year demonstrated an unmistakable shift in consumer behavior towards proactive health management,” said Sundeep Peechu, Managing Partner at Felicis. “Prenuvo has a unique integrated model that is difficult to replicate, and their advanced screening positions them to lead this transformation in preventative healthcare.”

Deliberate Growth and Clinical Excellence

Prenuvo has built the world’s largest private radiology group focused solely on whole-body MRI, with over 80 board-certified radiologists. This expertise has driven research collaborations with premier academic centers studying health, aging, and disease through the unique combination of MRI and AI.

Unlike others who outsource both imaging and radiology services, Prenuvo is fully vertically integrated, owning and operating 17 dedicated centers across North America. With a growing movement to prioritize preventative healthcare, Prenuvo will bring its revolutionary approach to 15 more clinics, including Europe and Australia, marking its first international expansion outside of North America.

“With only 2.5% of healthcare spending focused on preventative medicine, the US system waits for people to become sick before intervening,” said Brian O’Malley from Forerunner. “Consumers have grown tired of this and are responding with their own wallets. Prenuvo is the preeminent solution for a comprehensive understanding of one’s health, giving today’s patients unprecedented levels of knowledge to not just understand, but proactively intervene in the challenges that arise as we all age. Longevity is the new luxury and Prenuvo is democratizing access so that more can benefit from this.”

“Prenuvo has empowered patients in ways that conventional medical care simply hasn’t. Consumers are taking ownership and seeking answers outside of the traditional healthcare system. The physician and clinical ecosystem is waking up to the needs and wants of their patients, who are increasingly demanding proactive and preventative healthcare solutions like Prenuvo,” says Harley Miller, Managing Partner & CEO, Left Lane Capital. “We look forward to seeing how the team continues to scale, advance their proprietary research, and build on their life-changing (and saving) technology.”

At Prenuvo, every scan is a declaration of empowerment—a step toward putting health back into your hands. Today, we proudly mark a monumental milestone: 100,000 MRI scans completed. Each scan is a testament to the power of proactive healthcare, transforming lives through early detection and prevention. This milestone isn’t just a number—it’s a leap toward a future where everyone can take charge of their health and where late-stage diagnoses are left behind.

“We have been building Prenuvo to challenge the belief that healthcare should be scary. Instead, it should inspire hope and empowerment," said Andrew Lacy, CEO of Prenuvo. "Reaching 100,000 scans is more than a milestone — it’s a testament to the growing movement of proactive healthcare. We’re celebrating this achievement as a step toward a future where more people can take control of their health, and we’re looking forward to the transformative milestones still ahead.”  

‍Marking the Impact of 100,000 Scans

Since our founding in 2018, our mission has been simple: empower individuals with the information they need to take control of their health. Our journey to 100,000 scans has saved numerous lives through early detection, provided peace of mind to thousands, and pioneered innovation in preventive healthcare.

Since our founding, nearly half (49%) of patients find something worth keeping an eye on, while the remaining half have findings that are informational and not clinically actionable. 75% of patients showed signs of spinal degeneration, whether in the neck, lower back, or both (Note: not all cases lead to pain or symptoms of "tech neck" or low back pain)

Every scan represents a story of proactive health: a firefighter addressing the occupational toll on their body, a physiologist finding answers to long-standing concerns, or a parent taking proactive steps to secure their family’s future.

This milestone is a reflection of a unique value proposition that we believe is the best path toward a world where fear of disease is replaced by empowering knowledge, control, and peace of mind. This rests on a unique combination of pillars that no one else can claim in the field of whole body screening: 

• A patient experience that is quality-controlled end-to-end
• A technology stack optimizing hardware and software for diagnostic-quality whole body imaging 
• A world-class medical and research practice
  
  

An Unparalleled Medical Group by Design
At Prenuvo, our Medical Group is more than a team—it’s a pioneering force redefining what’s possible in preventive healthcare. As the largest private radiology group in the world focused exclusively on whole body MRI, our team now boasts over 80 board-certified radiologists, each bringing unparalleled expertise to advance early detection and proactive health management.

In the past year, we’ve strategically expanded our medical leadership with key appointments: Dr. Daniel Durand as Chief Medical Officer and President of Prenuvo Medical Group; Dr. Tyler Vachon as Vice President of Quality, Safety, and Informatics; Dr. Sean London as Vice President of U.S. Radiology Practice; Dr. Vikash Modi as Senior Medical Director of Preventive Medicine; Dr. Yosef Chodakiewitz as Medical Director of Clinical Research; Sarah Colson, NP, as Director of Advanced Practice Providers; and Dr. Giuliana Zaccardelli, MD, MBA, as Chief of Staff. These leaders are driving initiatives that bridge radiology with primary care and key specialties, further integrating our scans into the broader continuum of care and ensuring we remain at the forefront of medical innovation. 

Our commitment doesn’t stop at detection. With a patient-first approach, our radiologists are uniquely positioned to empower individuals with clarity and actionable insights, helping them navigate their health journeys with confidence. This model is a testament to the transformative power of radiology and our vision to make healthcare smarter, earlier, and more connected.

Pushing Boundaries of Medical Research

With this unique approach to our clinical service, we have also built up the world’s largest dataset of whole body normative imaging. Our structured approach to data enables our AI research and development team to open up a whole new world of applications that shed unique insights into the human aging process like never before. This work is first reflected in 35+ papers and abstracts presented at prestigious medical conferences such as the American Academy of Neurology, the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, and the Radiological Society of North America. Our paper, "Visceral and Subcutaneous Abdominal Fat Predict Brain Volume Loss at Midlife in 10,001 Individuals," rose to become the most-read article in the past two years when it was published by the Journal of Aging and Disease. While our research on “MRI-Based Prediction of Total and Regional Brain Volume Loss in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Independent of the Visceral Fat Distribution” was presented at the prestigious Radiology Conference & Annual Meeting (RSNA).

This R&D work will also help develop new AI applications that will improve diagnostic accuracy, and expand our understanding of silent health conditions. The insights we uncover are not just changing individual lives—they are reshaping the future of preventive healthcare.

A Future of Health and Possibility

Reaching 100,000 scans is more than a milestone—it’s a turning point. Each scan expands our knowledge, fuels innovation, and brings us closer to a world where health is within everyone’s grasp. Our vision is bold: a future where fear of disease is replaced with clarity, where we understand how to age with vitality, and where a diagnosis becomes less daunting because it means early action and effective care.

We’re excited to continue this journey, expand our reach and deepen our impact. With each new scan, we move closer to a future defined by proactive healthcare—a future where individuals and families can live longer, healthier lives.

‍Join Us on This Journey

Prenuvo’s success is a testament to the trust our patients place in us, the expertise and dedication of our radiologists, and our shared belief that prevention is the cornerstone of a healthier future. This milestone is not just a marker of what we’ve accomplished—it’s a reminder of why we do this work. With immense gratitude, we move forward, more committed than ever to expanding access to proactive healthcare and transforming lives, one scan at a time. Together, we’re building a future where everyone has the tools to take control of their health.

Ikon Pass holders receive a $400 discount on Prenuvo whole-body scans nationwide

Denver, CO, – Sept. 26, 2024 – Prenuvo, a leader in proactive health solutions through advanced whole-body MRI scans, is expanding its presence by opening a new clinic in snow sports-centric city Denver, CO, at 3200 E Cherry Creek South Drive. To celebrate the launch, Prenuvo has partnered with Ikon Pass to offer its pass holders a $400 discount on whole-body scans, making it easier than ever for outdoor enthusiasts to stay on top of their health as they gear up for the ski season.

“Denver’s active, health-conscious community is a perfect fit for Prenuvo’s proactive approach to healthcare,” said Alina Ioani, VP of Business Development and Strategic Partnerships at Prenuvo. “We’re launching a nationwide partnership with Ikon Pass, offering skiers and outdoor adventurers a way to maintain peak health and performance.”

From November 14, 2024 - February 28, 2025, Ikon Pass holders will receive a $400 discount on Prenuvo’s whole-body scans, available at Prenuvo locations in the US, with the exception of the Hercules Research Center in Boston. The Ikon Pass, which offers access to more than 50 premier mountain destinations, now provides an additional benefit to its members by helping them take a proactive approach to health. With Prenuvo scans, Ikon Pass holders can identify potential health risks early and stay in optimal condition for the winter season and beyond.

“Partnering with Prenuvo is a unique and cutting-edge way for Ikon Pass holders to monitor their health and wellness,” said Ryan Blanchard, Vice President of Brand Partnerships at Alterra Mountain Company. “We are excited to offer this benefit to our pass holders as they gear up for another winter season.”

Prenuvo’s award-winning whole-body MRI scans detect stage 1 tumors, aneurysms, and other potential health risks, providing detailed insights into key areas such as spinal and brain health. These scans are especially valuable for athletes and active individuals looking to stay ahead of their health. Radiation-free, non-invasive, and completed in under an hour, the scans are an efficient way to monitor overall well-being. Scans may be eligible for HSA and FSA reimbursement, adding another layer of accessibility for those looking to take control of their health.

Based on more than a decade of clinical research, Prenuvo’s scans have already alerted 1 in 20 people* to potentially life-threatening conditions. As demand for proactive healthcare continues to grow, the new Denver clinic is poised to become a go-to destination for health-conscious individuals in the region.

* This reflects in particular combined prevalence of radiologically suspected pre-cancerous/cancerous findings or brain aneurysms in our WB-MRI screening practice.

Prenuvo Introduces Its First-Ever Mobile MRI Clinic to Bring 60-Minute Whole Body MRI Scans to More Communities

‍

• Located at the US-Canada border in Buffalo, New York, the Mobile MRI Clinic features the same comprehensive experience patients receive at a traditional Prenuvo clinic
  
  
• The Mobile MRI Clinic debut is in response to a growing waitlist of 10,000+ Canadians seeking access to a Prenuvo scan   

• Prenuvo’s Mobile MRI Clinic increases access to proactive healthcare services and brings care directly to the patient as Canada’s universal healthcare system and current staffing shortages create barriers for Canadian residents
  
  
• This launch is part of Prenuvo's ongoing commitment to making proactive whole-body imaging accessible to more communities. You can sign up for a scan today at prenuvo.com/book-an-appointment/scan-details

‍

BUFFALO, NY – Aug. 22, 2024 -- Prenuvo, the company pioneering proactive whole-body imaging for the early detection of cancer and other diseases, today announced the launch of its first-ever luxury mobile whole-body MRI clinic, starting in Buffalo, New York. Housed at the OWM Integrative Wellness Center, the new clinic increases access to Prenuvo's services for communities in the United States and Canada. 

‍

Prenuvo's decision to launch a mobile clinic stems from challenges faced in expanding domestically. As a Canadian-born company with initial plans to expand to Toronto, Prenuvo has faced significant barriers due to restrictions on private imaging services in Ontario. Despite private companies, operating with licenses intended for public screening, performing whole-body screenings in Ontario, to date Prenuvo has yet to be provided a path to operate in the state. 

‍

‍

"As a Canadian-founded company, it’s disappointing to encounter barriers in expanding to Ontario,” said Andrew Lacy, Prenuvo’s CEO. “We have sought opportunities without government funding or disrupting existing systems, aiming solely to provide proactive screenings for private patients. These efforts have sadly been unsuccessful to date. Canadians deserve better access to proactive healthcare, and our new mobile clinic is a significant interim step toward meeting this growing demand and improving accessibility. We continue to talk with the Ontario government and hope to achieve a better resolution for Torontonians in the future." 

‍

The first Prenuvo clinic opened in Vancouver, where there was strong interest from Canadians in proactive health measures. Due to regulatory challenges in Ontario, thousands of Canadians have traveled to the U.S. for a Prenuvo scan. Over 10,000 Toronto residents have expressed a desire for a Prenuvo location in their city. To address this demand, Prenuvo has launched a mobile clinic near the Canadian border to provide a more convenient solution for those seeking comprehensive health scans.

‍

Dr. Leonard Kaplan, founder of OWM Integrative Wellness, was introduced to Prenuvo's whole-body MRI technology back in 2023 and was impressed by its ability to alert patients to conditions before symptoms arise. By partnering with Prenuvo to launch its first mobile clinic at OWM Integrative Wellness, Dr. Kaplan is providing early detection and intervention opportunities to the center’s patients. 

‍

"We are thrilled to partner with Prenuvo to offer full body MRI imaging to our clients," said Dr. Leonard Kaplan, DO Founder of OWM Integrative Wellness. "At OWM, we are committed to providing regenerative and holistic approaches to support our clients on their health journeys. By offering whole body, radiation-free MRI scans, we can focus on early detection of diseases, taking significant preventative measures to ensure our clients' long-term health and well-being."

‍

The Buffalo mobile clinic will provide the same comprehensive Prenuvo experience that patients would receive at traditional Prenuvo clinic locations. Patients will receive a safe, radiation-free MRI screening that provides diagnostic-quality imaging in under an hour, without the need for harmful dyes. After their scan, patients will have the option for a phone consultation with one of Prenuvo’s nurse practitioners to discuss their results and ensure a seamless continuity of care. 

‍

This announcement comes on the heels of Prenuvo’s latest openings in Houston, Texas and the  Hercules Research Center in Boston. To find your local Prenuvo clinic, please visit www.prenuvo.com.

Collaboration Expands Access to Preventative Health Innovations That Can Help John Hancock Customers Live Longer, Healthier, Better LivesTM

Boston, Massachusetts, June 18, 2024 —John Hancock, a unit of Toronto-based Manulife, today announced it is the first insurer in the U.S. to offer discounted access to Prenuvo’s state-of-the-art, whole-body MRI scans to eligible John Hancock Vitality customers.²

These represent one of the nation’s leading causes of disability and drivers of the nation’s annual health care spending.⁴ Prenuvo’s cutting-edge whole-body scan can identify 500+ conditions, including most solid tumors which can be detected as early as stage 1, in addition to aneurysms, cysts, and more.

‍
“Out of the $4.5 trillion spent on healthcare in the US, less than 4% is allocated to preventative care. That needs to change,” said Andrew Lacy, CEO and founder of Prenuvo. “Our collaboration with John Hancock marks the first step towards making preventative healthcare more accessible to consumers, and we're excited to expand this partnership in the future as part of our ongoing efforts to engage with the insurance industry.”

‍
After receiving a scan, qualified John Hancock Vitality members will have the opportunity to review their report with a nurse practitioner arranged by Prenuvo. Individual reports will not be shared with John Hancock and will not impact a customer's current life insurance coverage, pricing, or status in the John Hancock Vitality Program.
