In this episode of The Radiology Report, Daniel Arnold sits down with Dr. Daniel Durand, Chief Medical Officer at Prenuvo, to explore how whole-body MRI is reshaping the future of preventive care. As the clinical leader behind the world’s largest network dedicated to proactive imaging, Dr. Durand shares his journey from academic radiologist to healthcare executive and now, a leading voice in precision medicine.

Together, they discuss why radiologists are uniquely positioned to lead this shift from reactive care to proactive health optimization, and how Prenuvo’s data-rich approach is helping patients detect disease earlier, track meaningful changes over time, and take control of their long-term health.

In this episode, we cover:

  •  Why Dr. Daniel Durand chose radiology 
  • How Prenuvo’s whole-body MRI works 
  • What the Prenuvo scan can and can’t do
  • The evolution from sick care to health optimization
  • Prenuvo’s consumer-driven model 
  • The new Prenuvo Body Composition Report (imaging based)
  • What’s ahead for Prenuvo
  • Why Dr. Durand believes proactive imaging will become a standard part of annual care
