Are you asking if early detection of cancer results in better outcomes? Yes, the data unequivocally supports that diagnosing cancer before it spreads leads to lower mortality.
That’s only true if it’s actually a cancer that’s going to spread. Certain things like benign prostate cancer are often not worth treating. Testing everyone for everything leads to overtreatment and anxiety and worse quality of life.
I see the distinction. Thank you for clarifying. I think generally speaking I would prefer to have more data on my health. I don't like the idea that this information might be held back because it would make me "paranoid". That is my decision.
I can see that in the general case, it can lead to increased spending and worse outcomes.

Yea you can get prenuvo or a psa test by paying out of pocket. No one is holding anything back from anyone. I got a PSA test out of pocket for $60 at quest ( family history of PC) .
Yes I put those in quotes because that's how Prenuvo sells their product to the public. If fullbody scans truly improve survival then they wouldn't need kim kardashian to sell their product.
