What is included in the Essential band?

A full baseline at a partner centre: bloods, urine, ECG, chest X-ray, abdominal ultrasound and a stomach check, with a centre's own targeted extras. Enough to know where you stand.

Is this price the final price?

The range is $373–633, and it is a range because the band holds several published programs rather than one. The 2 centres in it (KMI, Medione) price comparable programs differently, and two of the four price by sex, or by sex and age band. Your own figure is quoted before you book, in your currency, and the won original is ₩500,000–850,000.

Where this sits

Against the other programs.

Every program on this site is a real published program at one of four Korean screening centres rather than a package assembled here. The bands move together in one direction: a full baseline, then endoscopy and a first CT or MRI on top, then the widest imaging and panels the centres publish.
