An “executive health check” in China is often used as shorthand for a more comprehensive, time-efficient private screening route. For international clients, the key is not the label—it is confirming what the visit includes, where it can be scheduled, what preparation is required, and how your official reports and imaging files will be handed over for review by your own physician.
Start with the boundary: planning support is not medical care
SinoScan48 is a coordination and concierge service. It can help check practical availability, coordinate scheduling, support communication, and organize report delivery, but it does not provide diagnosis, treatment, emergency care, or medical interpretation. Medical decisions and report interpretation must come from licensed medical institutions and qualified physicians.
- Use screening to support informed follow-up, not to replace care for symptoms or urgent concerns.
- If you have symptoms or a physician-directed diagnostic plan, follow qualified medical advice.
- Treat the concierge layer as logistics and documentation support—not clinical decision-making.
Choose the city route that matches your travel reality
City choice drives appointment windows, equipment access, travel friction, and report timelines. For some clients, Shanghai is attractive because of international connectivity, but other cities can be better fits depending on your schedule and the medical institution’s availability.
- Confirm which cities can support your preferred screening depth and any imaging items you care about.
- Plan hotel positioning around the confirmed appointment location to reduce transfer time while fasting.
- Build margin for registration, multiple departments, and report pickup or digital delivery.
Confirm what “Executive” includes before you book flights
Executive-style packages typically combine broader blood testing, ultrasound, and additional screening items. Advanced imaging such as MRI, CT, or PET/CT may be included, optional, or unavailable depending on the city and facility schedule. The safest planning move is to confirm the practical scope in writing before payment or travel.
- Ask for the item list and what is optional vs included for your city and date window.
- Confirm imaging modality availability (MRI, CT, PET/CT) and any preparation constraints set by the medical institution.
- If you have prior imaging or lab history, ask whether it should be shared with the facility in advance.
Use a preparation checklist to avoid day-of surprises
Many executive checkups require fasting and may have additional preparation rules. Preparation requirements must be confirmed by the medical institution, especially when contrast use, medication notes, or prior history could affect suitability.
- Fasting window and water/coffee rules (confirm exact hours with the facility).
- Medication list, allergies, and relevant prior reports to share if requested.
- Passport/ID details and contact information needed for registration and file labeling.
Plan the report handover like a deliverable
For international clients, the real value of screening is leaving with a clean, usable file set: official reports issued by the medical institution plus any imaging files. English support is most useful when it clarifies the file structure and improves handover for outside physician review—without presenting itself as official interpretation.
- Confirm how official reports and imaging files will be delivered (digital links, disc, or both).
- Ask what English support includes (file organization, labels, translation support) and what it does not (medical interpretation).
- Plan where you will take the reports for physician review after the trip.

How fast are results and reports?+

What does English report support usually mean?+

What should I send when checking availability?+
Share your travel dates, preferred city or cities, screening priorities, any imaging requests (MRI/CT/PET/CT), language needs, and whether you want arrival or transport support. The facility may request additional medical information later.
