For diagnostic imaging that requires a clinic visit – MRI, CT, PET/CT, or screening MRI – patients in Pasadena book directly with the imaging center. For routine X-rays, EKGs, and the medical visit itself, an at-home option avoids the trip entirely. Doctor2me physicians come to the patient’s address for primary care, follow-ups, and urgent issues that don’t need imaging or hospital-level care, with referrals to imaging centers when a scan is genuinely needed. The in-home medical services overview covers what the home-based option includes.

What Type of Facility Is Prenuvo Pasadena?
Prenuvo Pasadena is a screening MRI clinic – not a diagnostic imaging center for symptom-driven scans, and not a hospital radiology department. The model is preventive: patients book a scan to look for signs of disease before symptoms appear, rather than to investigate a specific complaint a physician has flagged.
This puts Prenuvo in a different category from a typical outpatient imaging center. The scans use MRI technology only, with no radiation and no injected contrast. The output is a Prenuvo report combining imaging findings with biomarker data through a single clinical platform.
What Does Prenuvo Offer?
Whole Body MRI Scan
Blood Biomarker Panels
Body Composition Analysis
Brain Health Assessment
The Brain Health Assessment is a targeted brain scan of approximately 25 minutes using NeuroQuant®, an FDA-cleared AI technology that measures brain volume and structure. The assessment is positioned as a baseline for cognitive and neurological health rather than a diagnostic tool for active symptoms.

Who Reviews the Results?
Prenuvo’s clinical team includes board-certified radiologists, preventive care physicians, and nurse practitioners. The company’s stated approach is to combine imaging and biomarker data into a single integrated report, rather than handing patients separate radiology and lab results to coordinate themselves.
For patients who want their primary care physician involved in interpreting results, Prenuvo reports can be shared with outside doctors. Doctor2me physicians, for example, review patient-supplied imaging and lab reports during home visits when relevant – useful for patients who want a familiar physician to walk through findings without booking a separate clinic appointment.
When Does a Prenuvo Scan Make Sense vs Symptom-Driven Imaging?
Screening vs Diagnostic Imaging
Prenuvo and a hospital radiology department serve different purposes. A symptom-driven MRI – ordered by a physician investigating a specific concern like back pain, a suspicious lump, or post-stroke evaluation – is diagnostic. A Prenuvo scan is screening: looking for early signs of disease in patients without specific complaints.
The two are not interchangeable. Patients with active symptoms still need symptom-driven imaging through a physician referral.
When Home Care Is the Right Choice
Most everyday medical questions don’t require imaging at all. Routine checkups, follow-ups for chronic conditions, urgent issues like infections or minor injuries, and medication reviews can be handled in a home visit without a clinic trip.
Doctor2me physicians visit patients at home for these everyday cases. Patients can pick a specific physician from the Doctor2me provider directory when continuity with a known doctor matters. If a scan is genuinely needed, the physician sends the imaging order to a center such as Prenuvo Pasadena once it opens, or to another imaging facility in the area.
Where Is Prenuvo Pasadena Located?
The Pasadena location is at 475 S Lake Avenue, basement level, in central Pasadena. The site is in the Lake Avenue commercial district, with retail and dining within walking distance. Access from the I-210 and SR-134 freeways is straightforward.
