Neko Health Preventive Screening Center Opening Dec. 9 in Aventura Mall

Swedish healthtech company Neko Health, co-founded by Spotify founder Daniel Ek, plans to open a preventive health screening center in the Aventura Mall on Dec. 9, offering $499 one-hour body scans using infrared imaging, cardiac measurements, and a 53-biomarker blood panel with no prior authorization needed for labs. The company has started a Miami-area waitlist ahead of the opening. Prenuvo operates full-body MRI screening locations in Boca Raton's Mizner Park and Coral Gables, while Baptist Health South Florida offers similar services through its executive health program. Medical experts caution that no single scan replaces traditional screenings such as colonoscopies and mammograms, and routine scanning can lead to unnecessary follow-up procedures for benign findings.
