Prenuvo Opens Second Texas Location to Meet Demand for Proactive Whole Body MRI Scans
The company’s Houston clinic joins 11 locations across the US and Canada
With Prenuvo, you can catch conditions before they become crises. The company’s scans can detect over 500 conditions and have alerted ~1 in 20 patients to potentially life-saving diagnoses*
Backed by leading health and technology investors, including 23AndMe CEO Anne Wojcicki, Prenuvo is shifting the health paradigm from reactive “sick care” to proactive healthcare with fast, safe, non-invasive whole-body scans
Prenuvo, the company pioneering proactive whole-body imaging for the early detection of cancer and other diseases, today announced the opening of its second Texas-based clinic. This newest clinic offers individuals in the Greater Houston and surrounding area access to a nearby facility for whole-body screening, providing local community members with an opportunity to make potential life-saving preventative health decisions due to proactive, early detection.
Prenuvo’s new Houston clinic opens at 3720 Westheimer Road in Houston’s River Oaks neighborhood.
“The demand for information about our health is growing fast,“ says Andrew Lacy, Founder and CEO of Prenuvo. ”Texans are looking for ways to be proactive about their health, and Prenuvo’s newest Houston location is giving the local community a way to see what’s happening beneath their skin, providing people with information about their bodies that they would otherwise not have access to and empowering them to make informed decisions about their care.”
Prenuvo’s award-winning whole-body scan can identify 500+ conditions, including most solid tumors, which can be detected as early as stage 1, aneurysms, cysts, and more. The technology is based on over 10 years of clinical work, and with tens of thousands of scans completed, the company has alerted one in 20 patients to potentially life-saving diagnoses*. Prenuvo scans do not use radiation or involve contrast injections, and patients can be fully scanned in under an hour. The scans are HSA and FSA-eligible.
“You have to be your biggest advocate for your health,” says Latonia Boykins, who underwent a Prenuvo scan to learn more about herself after some frustration with the existing U.S. healthcare system. “Prenuvo gave me answers that the rest of the medical community could not.”
In addition to the individual benefits that Prenuvo offers, the company launched Prenuvo for Employers, a program allowing businesses to provide proactive scans to their employees as part of their health benefits packages. Set in consultation with the Prenuvo benefits team, employers get preferred rates for scan packages with the flexibility to purchase in full or provide a subsidy against the cost.

Prenuvo also offers resources for healthcare providers. For more information, providers can visit https://www.prenuvo.com/for-providers.
Scans are available in Houston, DC (Bethesda), New York City, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Dallas, Boca Raton, Chicago, Atlanta, Vancouver, a partner location in Minneapolis, and a research-only facility in Boston, with more coming soon.
