FAQ

How does Neko Health compare to other body scanners on the market?

First and foremost, the Neko Body Scan is not an MRI/CT scan. Our unique non-invasive scan maps millions of health data points on your body - both inside and out - in just a few minutes. We check the moles on your body and the overall health of your heart and arteries. With a blood test we check your blood sugar and cholesterol levels and a whole lot more. Combining advanced technology with our own doctors enables us to conduct a comprehensive examination, helping you stay ahead of your health.

We check for high blood pressure and other early indicators for stroke and heart attack - along with blood fats, cholesterol and blood sugar levels, to assess pre-diabetes risk. Additionally, we check for skin cancer and any blood abnormalities. 

Immediately following your scan, you will receive a personalised consultation with one of our doctors who will personally walk you through all your results and answer any questions you may have about your health. No rushing, no worrying, just quality time that is personalised to you.

Is Neko putting more load onto the healthcare system?

No, our service will not add more load onto the healthcare. In fact, it aims to reduce this. By focusing on cardiovascular, metabolic and skin health we provide tailored lifestyle interventions to our members, enabling them to decrease their risk of developing the chronic lifestyle-driven diseases that are placing high demands on the healthcare system.

If we identify that more intensive treatment is necessary, we always conduct additional tests, such as blood tests, ECG, ultrasound or provide you with a blood pressure monitor for seven days to rule out any false positives before referring you to your GP.

We can prescribe medication when it's urgently required, such as in cases of very high blood pressure. However, for ongoing management of long-term conditions, we usually refer you back to your GP with our findings and recommendations, ensuring that any necessary treatment is managed appropriately.

We believe in a tailored approach to an individual’s health, rather than how they fit within a normal/abnormal scale - as we hear from members that they can be dismissed if their results come back within what is considered to be a “normal” range.

Our goal is to provide early intervention to prevent the more serious health problems that would require longer and more intensive treatments. By catching conditions early, or preventing them from developing, we can help to reduce the overall demand and load on the healthcare system and GPs, potentially decreasing waiting times for everyone.

What happens if you find something? 

If we find something, our response depends on the stage at which the condition is detected. If we catch it early, we provide personalised lifestyle advice to help prevent it from developing into a more serious health condition. This includes recommendations on diet, exercise, and other healthy lifestyle habits. If we identify that more intensive treatment is necessary, we always conduct additional tests, such as blood tests, ECG, ultrasound or provide you with a blood pressure monitor for seven days to rule out any false positives before we ask you to speak to your GP team, ensuring you have all the relevant information to hand. Our goal is to ensure you receive the appropriate care and treatment for any findings from your Neko Body Scan.

What clinical studies is Neko currently conducting?

At Neko Health research is in our DNA, and we always aim to push the limits of technology and science, to create the best possible product and service for our members to stay ahead of their health.

In broad terms our research portfolio is setup to investigate and develop technologies and methods to enable preventive and proactive healthcare. Our belief is that most diseases does not just happen to, but rather develop within you. Therefore, our focus is aimed towards assessing the biological functions of the body and to detect when these functions are altered or lost, rather than detecting disease and damage that has already started. Not only do we believe this can enable us to stop disease from ever occurring, but that it can also provide means for improving life quality and longevity. Today, a lot of healthcare guidelines are based on population statistics, but what if the individual is not average? We strive to develop these methods, so that they assess the specific individual, at the specific point in time.

Today, we are running 6 clinical studies in Sweden. For more information visit: https://www.nekohealth.com/se/sv/clinical-studies
