One reason why scans may not always benefit overall health, despite their impressive ability to peer inside the body, is that they can find abnormalities that would never have killed you, leading to unnecessary worry and treatment.
Even in this high-tech era of amazing medical tools--MRI scanners that can see deep inside the body, gamma-ray beams harnessed to zap tumors, implantable defibrillators that shock the heart to keep it pumping--surgeons still wield an old-fashioned blade to take life into their hands.
