MRI saved my life. It may save yours too. 
 
I’m excited to announce the world's best full-body MRI protocol in partnership with Ezra. This Blueprint MRI includes everything I’ve learned over the past four years becoming the most MRI-measured person in the world. This is me: 

Context: 
My brain was silently dying and I wouldn’t have known had it not been for a routine MRI. 

A few years ago, a routine MRI showed that I have internal jugular vein stenosis (IJVS). This means I have genetically narrow jugular veins which restricted blood flow from my brain to my body which is very bad for the brain. My bad posture was making it ever worse. After the MRI found this - that I’ve had my entire life but never diagnosed any other way - I was able to do physical therapy and improve my posture and muscle that corrected for better blood flow. I also corrected for my sleep position and posture when I look at my phone or work on a computer. These things dramatically improved the health of my brain via the reduction of white matter hyper-intensities. 
 
MRIs see things that physical appearance hides, blood work struggles to pick up, and for which no symptoms exist. Sometimes saving our lives. 
 
And while MRI scans are great, most protocols only measure a handful of things. 
 
I’ve learned this first hand. Over the past few years, I’ve become the most biologically measured person in history and MRI is among the most valuable measurements I routinely do. I may have now spent more time in an MRI than any living person. This has taught me a lot about why MRI is valuable.
 
I’ve worked with Ezra to put into one scan everything I’ve learned over the past four years of trial and error. You now have access to the world’s best MRI protocol.  

 
Flash $1,295 
  • A 30-minute MRI that screens for cancer and 500+ conditions in 13 organs. 

Full Body $2,195
  • A 60-minute MRI that screens for cancer and 500+ conditions in 13 organs, and assesses the spine for degenerative changes.  

Blueprint $5,695 
  • Ezra Blueprint is the most advanced scan in the world. Two 60-minute MRIs covering Brain, Adrenal Glands, Spine, Bladder, Ovaries, Uterus, Prostate, Pelvis, Kidney, Thyroid, Gallbladder, Pancreas, Spleen, Liver, MRA of the head and neck (MRA Carotid, MRA Circle of Willis (COW)), Neck, Hips and knees. PLUS a Low-dose Chest CT of the lungs with Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring. Available at select Ezra locations, for the most up to date information check the website.

If you want to be proactive about your health you can do this annually. Longitudinal monitoring is the best way to detect changes early.
 
+ Detect potential cancer in the early stages to help ensure the best outcome 
+ Identify life-threatening problems such as tumors, aneurysms, and more 
+ Screens for 500 conditions & health of 13 organs
+ Decode the biological age of your brain 
+ Provide a comprehensive measurement profile of your joints and spine, informing lifestyle and therapies 
+ Create your digital twin so that you now have a baseline to follow what is or is not working for your improved health. 
 
Here are my latest MRI results:
✔ No detectable cancer
✔ Brain age: 42 (I’m 47)
✔ Hippocampi are in the 72nd percentile 
✔ Brain volume top 73rd percentile
✔ Brain inflammation: less than 80% of my age group
✔ Brain gray matter: top 84th percentile
✔ Brain white matter: top 80th percentile lesion free
✔ Muscle mass: 100th percentile 
✔ Fat in Muscles: 100th percentile 
✔ Visceral fat: 100th percentile 
✔ Subcutaneous fat: 100th percentile 
✔ LV/Brain ratio is 1% (better than 64% of my peers). Lateral Ventricles become enlarged with age as the brain tissue shrinks. This is a general marker of aging and of dementia and AD.
 
MRI is widely used and well-known to be safe. You can also add a low-dose chest CT to screen for potential lung cancer, emphysema, lung bullaes, cysts and more
 
The dream for the future is that all of us will have routine MRI scans to find problems at their earliest stages and help us proactively manage our health.
