Full Body Scans, Virtual Physicals, etc.

I am wondering if anyone has had or thought about having a full body scan or virtual physical. I don't know what the correct term is for these. They are not covered by insurance usually. I was listening to an old Oprah show on the radio which was about these. It was from 2000 or so, and even with what must by now be old technology, they said that the radiation exposure was less than a chest x-ray. They cost between $800 and $1300. I thought if I can't get CT and nuclear bone scans through my MO without symptoms maybe I should save up my money for one of these. Other health problems are cropping up for me as well, and I think I'd rather just know everything that's going on rather than having one thing after another crop up. Anyone gone this route?
