Ann Arbor is a city that leads the world in medical research and innovation. For residents who prioritize their health, the standard “annual physical” is no longer the gold standard. The most advanced way to monitor your health is with a whole body MRI in Michigan Ann Arbor professionals can trust for providing a level of detail that traditional medicine simply cannot match.

The 71% Screening Gap: Why “Healthy” Isn’t Enough
Standard tests like mammograms and colonoscopies only screen for 29% of cancers, leaving a 71% gap in your healthcare—dangerous ‘blind spots’ where disease often grows undetected.
Our mission at Bionicc Body Screening is to close that gap. By using high-resolution MRI technology, we look for Stage 1 abnormalities long before they cause symptoms.
The Bionicc Protocol vs. The Standard Physical
| Feature | Standard Physical | Bionicc Whole Body MRI |
| Primary Goal | Reactive (Treating symptoms) | Proactive (Early Detection) |
| Cancer Detection | ~29% of common cancers | Comprehensive (Head-to-Pelvis) |
| Radiation | Varies (X-rays/CT) | Zero Radiation |
| Internal Detail | External/Bloodwork only | High-Resolution Internal 3D Imaging |

The Legacy of Dr. Warren Ringold
Bionicc was founded by the late Dr. Warren Ringold, a physician who believed that patients deserve the truth about their health before it’s too late. Dr. Ringold was a proud 1975 graduate of the University of Michigan Medical School in Ann Arbor.
Today, his son Ryan Ringold carries on this legacy, ensuring every Ann Arbor client receives the same precision and care that Dr. Ringold pioneered.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why should I drive to Southfield for an MRI?
Bionicc specializes specifically in proactive screening. Most hospitals in Ann Arbor are “reactive”—they focus on people who are already sick. We focus on keeping healthy people healthy through our Full Body MRI screenings.
Is there any radiation?
No. Unlike CT scans, our MRI uses magnets and radio waves. It is completely safe for annual monitoring.
Do you take insurance?
No. Insurance does not cover our proactive, elective screenings designed to catch issues early. This allows us to provide a high-level, “no-referral-needed” experience.
What is the cost of a whole body MRI in Ann Arbor, Michigan?
We believe in transparent pricing, which is available on our Scans & Pricing page on our website.
