About this hospitalWhat the center says
From the center's own pages, in English. Each statement links to its source.
Patients with an appointment are asked to check in at 08:10 on the day, to keep the exam schedule on track.
If a patient cannot come for the checkup as scheduled, the center asks them to contact the health checkup center the day before.
Patients booking the whole-body checkup packages are asked to fast beforehand.
The center asks patients to avoid staying up late, drinking alcohol, or vigorous exercise for two days before the checkup.
The center asks patients to fast completely, including water, for 8 hours before the blood draw.
Patients on medication for a chronic illness are asked to bring their medication and take it after the fasting-required tests are done.
Patients who are menstruating are asked to tell the nurse and provide the urine sample after their period ends.
Female patients are asked not to submit the stool sample test during their period.
For the X-ray, patients are asked not to wear clothing with metal buttons or sequins, and to remove necklaces and ID badges.
Patients who are pregnant or may be pregnant cannot have the X-ray, and are asked to tell staff.
For the X-ray, female patients are advised to wear a wire-free sports bra, not a metal underwire sports bra.
For the bone density scan, female patients are asked not to wear pantyhose, so it is easier to put on and take off.
For the resting ECG, patients are asked to wear loose clothing, and female patients are asked not to wear a one-piece dress or pantyhose.
Blood draw, abdominal ultrasound, and the C-13 H. pylori breath test all require fasting.
If a patient could not provide the urine sample on the day of the checkup, they are asked to submit it later by the posted date.
If a patient could not provide the stool sample on the day of the checkup, they are asked to submit it later by the posted date.
Patients are asked to fill out the online 'Employee Health Checkup Record' questionnaire before checking in, so they can proceed with the exams.
Ask your own doctor before changing any medicine.

Radiation from this package's imaging
About 2.2 mSv from the tests we could identify, a typical adult dose for these exams: roughly 8 months of natural background radiation (about 3 mSv a year, US average).
This package also lists 25 items we have not matched to a test; if any of them is an X-ray, CT or PET scan, the total is higher.
- Abdominal X-ray (KUB) · about 0.7 mSv
- Bone density (DXA) · about less than 0.01 mSv
- Chest X-ray · about 0.1 mSv
- Spine X-ray · about 1.4 mSv
Typical doses from published references (RadiologyInfo.org ↗, Mettler et al. 2008 ↗); the actual dose depends on the scanner and protocol. Ask the center for its own figure.

General preparation notes for 11 tests in this package
This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested, so the test is often done in the morning.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Fasting for 9 to 12 hours (no food or drink except plain water) is often requested.
Mention when booking: Confirm with the center whether your test needs fasting; if you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting.
Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.
Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.
Guaiac-based kits usually ask you to avoid red meat, NSAIDs and more than 250mg of vitamin C for a few days beforehand; FIT kits usually need no diet change.
Mention when booking: Tell the center which kit you were given, and ask the prescribing doctor before stopping aspirin taken for the heart.
Usually needs a clean-catch (midstream) sample; some tests instead ask you to collect all urine passed over 24 hours.
Mention when booking: Ask which specific urine test your provider ordered, since collection instructions vary by test.
Usually asks for no smoking for 24 hours, no heavy meals for at least 2 hours, and no alcohol for at least 4 hours beforehand; wear loose clothing.
Mention when booking: Mention a recent heart attack, stroke or surgery, a chest infection, heart problems or uncontrolled blood pressure; ask whether to bring or hold your usual inhaler.
Usually needs no fasting; you remove jewelry, metal objects and sometimes clothing above the waist for a hospital gown.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs about 6 hours without food beforehand; clear fluids other than milk or fizzy drinks are commonly still allowed. Loose, comfortable clothing is easiest.
Mention when booking: Mention if you have type 1 diabetes, so the center can offer an early appointment time.
For a transabdominal scan, drinking water beforehand to fill the bladder is common; for a transvaginal scan, an empty bladder is usual instead.
Mention when booking: Tell the center which type of scan you expect, and mention if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs little or no preparation; an enema and antibiotics are mainly for a planned biopsy. A scan through the lower belly instead may need a full bladder.
Mention when booking: Mention aspirin or other blood thinners; if a biopsy is planned, the center may ask about pausing them, so ask the prescribing doctor before changing any medicine.
Usually asks that you skip calcium supplements for 24 hours beforehand. Avoid clothing with metal zippers or buttons, and remove jewelry.
Mention when booking: Mention any recent barium exam or CT/nuclear-medicine contrast, and whether pregnancy is possible.
