  • Hello Mayoclinic, I am paying for my mum and dad to have a Full Body MRI Scan including the brain. It is a wellness check to see if any problems are present in the body. My grandmother had Alzheimer's diseases and I was wondering is there any info that I can pass on to the centre which may make it easy for them to detect the possible chances of my parents developing Alzheimer's. I would very much appreciae any information you are able to give.
