Health Screening

Our Total Healthcare center provides a variety of health screening programs to help you understand your body and be prepared for a healthier life.

Health Screening Process

We provide an optimized program for each individual based on the assessment from our professionals and on your interest. All clients go through a consultation prior to the health screening to customize their examination program. Consultation can also take place (over the phone or on-line)before your visit to Korea in order to guide you through choosing your program.

During the examinations, a translator will be next to you for those who are uncomfortable speaking in languages other than your own. After the examination, clients can be directly referred to Kangbuk Samsung Hospital for an in-depth medical consultation or for more diagnostic tests, depending on the results of the health check up. For those leaving immediately after checkup, we will provide translated documents(including copy of your study images)to ensure your continued healthcare in your own country.

  Program Design	Clients can also choose from our list of tests to add to the basic tests. This allows for clients to generate a more individualized program depending on their areas of interest.

  CT

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost
  PET-CT	PET-CT is an innovative medical imaging device. PET-CT was invented under the notion that uptake of glucose increase in malignant tissues. A PET-CT scan uses very small amount of glucose to make images from within the body. The highly sensitive PET scan detects the metabolic signal of actively growing cancer cells over the whole body, and provides a detailed picture of the internal anatomy that reveals the location, size, and shape of abnormal cancerous growths.	1,560,000 1,690,000 (including brain)
  Coronary artery MDCT	In coronary artery MDCT, heart vessels (coronary artery) are observed with 3-dimensional image, by which coronary artery disease can be early diagnosed based on the information for cardiac blood volume, wall thickness and coronary artery narrowing.	290,000
  Low dose chest MDCT	Assesses for early detecting of lung cancer. A MDCT scan uses a special type of x-ray to obtain information from different angles around the body. Computers process the information and create cross-sectional images that appear as “slices” of the body and organ.	260,000
  Brain CT	Assesses brain tumors and other brain diseases. CT scanning combines special x-ray equipment with sophisticated computers to produce multiple images or pictures of the inside of the body.	260,000

  MRI

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost
  Whole Body MRI	Whole-body MRI is a diagnostic method that examines abnormalities in body tissues and conditions in two and three dimensions without radiation exposure. It can diagnose abnormalities in the brain, abdomen, spine, and musculoskeletal system. However, it is less accurate than each single test, so additional tests may be needed when abnormal findings are found.	1,560,000
  Brain MRI	MRI is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to visualize internal structures of the body especially useful in imaging brain tissues, blood vessels in detail by using computer reconstruction. Brain tumors, stroke, hemorrhage, etc. is diagnosed in this test.	910,000
  Brain MRA	Without using contrast, this test uses the feature of blood flow. The patient can find out the stenosis, vascular malformations through blood vessel screening.	520,000 1,300,000 For both(MRI&MRA)
  Shoulder Joint MRI (Only one side : Right or Left)	This test is the most accurate and specific examination to diagnose tendinitis, myofascial pain syndrome, shoulder impingement syndrome, rotator cuff syndrome and ligaments of the internal shoulder, and tendon.	910,000
  Knee Joint MRI (Only one side : Right or Left)	This test is the most accurate and specific examination to diagnose cartilage damage, ligament damage, arthritis and to check ligament, tendon and other conditions of the knee.	910,000
  Lumbar MRI	Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a test that uses a magnetic field and pulses of radio wave energy to make pictures of the spine. MRI can find changes from the normal in the spine and in other tissues. It also can locate problems such as infection or a tumor	910,000
  Cervical MRI	Using MRI, the bony structure of the spinal vertebrae is clearly and accurately shown by MRI scanning, as are the intervertebral disks and, to some degree, the spinal cord. It is useful to detect spinal column damage and various types of tumor in the vertebral column and degenerative spinal disease.	910,000

  Ultrasonography

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost
  Echocardiography	The reflected wave of the high-frequency ultrasound wave from heart is imaged for the detection of functional and morphologic abnormality in heart (diagnosing the functional and congenital heart disease)	320,000
  Transvaginal ultrasonography	Diagnosis of endometrial disorders and detection of myomas, ovarian cysts or tumors, etc	240,000
  Carotid Artery Ultrasonography	Carotid Ultrasonography is to find whether artery is narrowed down and to detect weak blood flow. For whom has hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, smoking is a helpful test to predict the level of stroke risk.	290,000
  Thyroid Ultrasonography	Thyroid sonogram evaluates the size and shape of thyroid gland and may detect nodule, cyst, calcification and cancer of thyroid.	240,000
  Breast Ultrasonography	Ultrasound imaging can be helpful to detect where there is palpated lump, cyst, benign or malignant tumor (breast cancer). In the case of dense breast in breast imaging, breast ultrasonography can helpful to find out the lesion.	290,000
  Prostate Ultrasonography	Prostate Ultrasonography evaluates the size of prostate, prostatitis, prostate benign lesion and malignant lesion (prostate cancer). Since the test is performed by anal insertion of an ultrasound probe into the rectum through anus, the procedure may make you feel uncomfortable.	260,000

  Endoscopy

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost
  Trans cranial Doppler(TCD)	Tran Cranial Doppler (TCD) is a test that measures the speed of blood flow through the cerebral blood vessels, using ultrasonic wave. It is useful to detect the obstruction or narrowing of the cerebral arteries.	260,000

  Bone Density Test

  Type of test	Single Test Item	Cost
  Lumbar and Femoral	Osteoporosis is a disease of bones that lead to increased risk of wrist and hip fractures because bone mineral density (BMD) is reduced. The purpose of this test is to find osteoporosis even at an early stage.	130,000
