Andrew Lacy founded Prenuvo to make whole-body MRI screening accessible as a proactive health tool, built on data from more than 150,000 scans. That work is what Andrew Lacy brought to his conversation with Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour.
The conversation digs into what those scans are actually revealing about spinal aging, hidden organ issues, and visceral fat — and why Lacy believes fear, not cost or access, is the biggest barrier keeping people from getting screened.
