Bumping old thread.
Anyone else done this for any reason?
I've been pondering getting such a scan for my own self-analytical reasons. Analyzing certain sub-pathological issues which doctors are uninterested or unknowledgeable in, with aim to at least understand it, and possibly ameliorate them. I think you can get the scan, in DICOM file format, and view it yourself on your computer if you buy the software.
Has anyone else ever considered doing this, to answer 'why is my body like this' questions? I'm fascinated with this sub-pathological space which modern medicine still doesn't really touch. I see the future of medicine expanding much more into 'maximizing performance' than 'avoiding death'. After all, if you 'become sick' in the heart due to obesity, were you not already 'sick in the mouth' that created it? If you 'become sick' in the back due to posture, were you not really just injuring yourself in the workplace? And so on.
