Preventive medicine is becoming a new growth point in cross-border medical care. Many high-end checkup institutions in Shanghai have launched deep checkup packages for international patients. Core items include whole-genome sequencing, ctDNA liquid biopsy, whole-body MRI diffusion-weighted imaging, coronary CTA and meticulous gastrointestinal endoscopy, totaling over a hundred examinations, raising early cancer screening and chronic disease risk assessment to a new level.
Core items of deep checkups
Whole-genome sequencing assesses hereditary tumor and chronic disease risks; ctDNA liquid biopsy detects early tumor signals by capturing circulating tumor DNA in blood; whole-body MRI diffusion-weighted imaging screens systemic lesions without radiation; coronary CTA evaluates cardiovascular calcification and stenosis; gastrointestinal endoscopy completes upper and lower digestive tract examinations under one anesthesia.
Service process and report interpretation
International patients enjoy one-on-one medical interpretation throughout, and multilingual reports are explained item by item by experts above the associate chief physician level. Those with abnormal findings are seamlessly referred to appropriate specialties, achieving a closed loop from screening to diagnosis and treatment.
Cost and package options
Deep checkup packages cost about RMB 15,000-30,000, and flagship genetic packages about RMB 30,000-50,000, with significant price advantages over similar services in Europe and the US. Patients can choose combinations based on family history and health conditions.
