Overview
Neko Health offers a preventive health assessment built around its proprietary scanning environment, on-site blood analysis and clinician review. According to its UK materials, the scan takes about one hour, measures skin, cardiovascular, metabolic and body-composition indicators rather than using MRI or CT, and is published at £299. Results are discussed during the same visit on the provider's description. The service is best understood as a broad preventive health check for adults who want a structured snapshot of selected risk factors and biomarkers. It is not a replacement for symptom-led medical assessment, NHS screening programmes or dedicated imaging where those are clinically indicated. Neko differs from full-body MRI providers: its core approach is rapid multimodal assessment without MRI or ionising radiation, as the provider states.

- No MRI or CT
Who it may suit
