Full-body magnetic resonance imaging for companies – preventive complementary support for occupational well-being and health
Working life has changed, and so has the way companies take care of their employees’ well-being and work ability. Alongside traditional occupational health care, companies are increasingly looking for solutions that emphasize prevention, early detection, and comprehensive health care—rather than just reacting when problems have already developed.
One of these emerging solutions is full-body magnetic resonance imaging for companies, which is increasingly being used as part of proactive support for well-being and work ability.
Why are companies interested in whole-body magnetic resonance imaging?
For companies, employee well-being is not just a soft value, but a factor that directly affects business operations. Illnesses among key personnel, prolonged sick leave, and reduced work capacity quickly become apparent in everyday life—especially in small businesses and SMEs.
Full-body magnetic resonance imaging provides a broader overview of a person’s health, often before clear symptoms appear.
This makes it an interesting complementary service to occupational health care, especially when the goal is to:
- identify health risks at an early stage
- support work ability and coping in the long term
- increase staff peace of mind and sense of security
- prevent sick leave
Who is whole-body magnetic resonance imaging suitable for in business use?
Full-body magnetic resonance imaging is particularly suitable for companies:
- small businesses and SMEs, where the work ability of each key employee is critical
- company management and entrepreneurs who want to take a proactive approach to their own and their staff’s health
- as a complementary service to occupational health care when a broader overview of health status is desired
- for organizations that invest in well-being at work, work ability, and the prevention of sick leave
What can whole-body magnetic resonance imaging reveal?
Full-body magnetic resonance imaging provides a comprehensive view of the body’s structures without ionizing radiation. The examination can reveal, among other things:
- early-stage cancerous tumors
- changes in the musculoskeletal system
- inflammatory or degenerative findings
- structural abnormalities that may later affect work ability
The examination is particularly suitable for people who do not have any clear symptoms but who want to check their health in good time and take preventive measures against future problems.
Full-body magnetic resonance imaging complements occupational health care services
Full-body magnetic resonance imaging does not replace occupational health care or insurance, but rather serves as a complementary service for companies and small businesses.
Visio Magneettikuvaus’ full-body MRI examination includes:
- A written statement from a radiology specialist
- A phone call with a general practitioner to go over the test results and what they mean in plain language.
This approach ensures that the patient understands the findings, their significance, and any follow-up measures, and is not left alone with the results. If necessary, a referral for further examination or treatment is always made.
The telephone consultation service provided by a specialist in general medicine is particularly valuable for small businesses, where occupational health care may be more limited and where the well-being of key personnel is directly linked to business continuity.
Well-being is an investment, not a cost
For companies and small businesses, employee well-being translates into concrete benefits:
- improved work ability
- reduced sick leave
- greater commitment and resilience at work
When whole-body magnetic resonance imaging is combined with a radiologist’s report and a review of the results with a general practitioner, the company gets more than just a single examination. It gets comprehensive and preventive occupational health support services.
