The Brain Tumor Foundation (BTF) has announced that it will offer free early detection brain tumor MRI screenings for residents of Philadelphia and the surrounding areas.

Free MRI brain scans for Philadelphia residents

These screenings will take place at the Triumph Baptist Church of Philadelphia (parking lot), located at 1648 W Hunting Park Avenue, on November 11, 12, 13, and 15, throughout the day. Appointments are required for the screenings. Individuals wishing to make an appointment should visit https://scanbtf.org.

This initiative is part of the Foundation's ongoing early detection program and research project. The screenings have been made possible through the sponsorship of Alexandra Schreiber Ferman, who received support from her donors during the NYC Marathon.

BTF President Nelson Oyesiku, MD, MSc, PhD, FACS, a Professor and Chair in the Department of Neurological Surgery and Professor of Medicine at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, stated, "This free screening provides an opportunity for residents of Philadelphia to detect the presence of a tumor before it causes symptoms. Health outcomes are generally better if tumors are detected at the pre-symptom stage. The MRI process exposed patients to no radiation, making it a completely safe procedure."
