As we close the chapter on 2025, we at Al Safwa Radiology Centre want to extend our sincerest thanks. Thank you for trusting us with your care, for the kind words, and for being part of our community in Sharjah. It’s been a privilege to be a part of your healthcare journey.
Now, with a fresh year ahead, it’s the perfect time to think proactively. Instead of just reacting to health issues, why not make 2026 the year you build a smarter, more intentional health plan? It’s not about drastic changes, but about thoughtful check-ins that give you peace of mind.
Shifting the Mindset: From “Fix It” to “Check It”
A great health plan is like maintaining a car. You don’t wait for the engine to smoke; you get regular oil changes and tire rotations. Your body deserves the same preventative care.
This means having conversations with your doctor about preventive health check-ups. These aren’t just for when you feel sick—they’re scheduled assessments based on your age, lifestyle, and family history to catch potential issues early, when they’re often most manageable.
Your Health Plan Building Blocks for 2026
Think of this as a conversation starter for your next doctor’s visit. What might be relevant for you to discuss?
1. Know Your Numbers (The Basics):
This is the foundation. Talk to your GP about checking:
- Blood pressure
- Cholesterol levels
- Blood sugar (for diabetes screening)
- Body Mass Index (BMI)
These simple tests can reveal a lot about your heart health and metabolic wellness.
2. Consider Age & Stage Appropriate Screenings:
This is where medical screening gets personal. Based on guidelines, your doctor might discuss:
- For Women: The appropriate schedule for mammograms (breast X-rays) and cervical cancer screenings (Pap smears).
- For Everyone: Discussions about colorectal cancer screening options (which can include scans like CT colonography) starting at a certain age.
- Bone Health: For post-menopausal women and older adults, a conversation about a DEXA scan to assess bone density might be timely.
3. The Role of Proactive Imaging:
Medical imaging can be a powerful part of a prevention plan, when clinically justified. It’s not a one-size-fits-all annual photo shoot. Your doctor might consider specific scans if you have elevated risk factors.
- Heart Health: For individuals with specific risk profiles (like high cholesterol, family history, or high blood pressure), a cardiac CT scan for calcium scoring might be a topic.
- Lung Health: If you have a significant history of smoking, your doctor can advise if you meet the criteria for a low-dose CT lung screening.
- Full-Body Scans? It’s important to know that general “full-body” CT or MRI scans are not recommended as routine screening. They can lead to unnecessary anxiety from harmless findings and are not a substitute for targeted, evidence-based check-ups.
Your First Step: That Conversation with Your Doctor
This isn’t a checklist to complete on your own. The most important item on your 2026 health plan is scheduling a comprehensive check-up with your primary care physician.
Bring your family history, your questions, and your goals. Together, you can build a personalised screening schedule that makes sense for your life.

- For Everyone: Discussions about colorectal cancer screening options (which can include scans like CT colonography) starting at a certain age.
- Bone Health: For post-menopausal women and older adults, a conversation about a DEXA scan to assess bone density might be timely.
3. The Role of Proactive Imaging:
Medical imaging can be a powerful part of a prevention plan, when clinically justified. It’s not a one-size-fits-all annual photo shoot. Your doctor might consider specific scans if you have elevated risk factors.
- Heart Health: For individuals with specific risk profiles (like high cholesterol, family history, or high blood pressure), a cardiac CT scan for calcium scoring might be a topic.
- Lung Health: If you have a significant history of smoking, your doctor can advise if you meet the criteria for a low-dose CT lung screening.
- Full-Body Scans? It’s important to know that general “full-body” CT or MRI scans are not recommended as routine screening. They can lead to unnecessary anxiety from harmless findings and are not a substitute for targeted, evidence-based check-ups.
Your First Step: That Conversation with Your Doctor
This isn’t a checklist to complete on your own. The most important item on your 2026 health plan is scheduling a comprehensive check-up with your primary care physician.
Bring your family history, your questions, and your goals. Together, you can build a personalised screening schedule that makes sense for your life.

As we close the chapter on 2025, we at Al Safwa Radiology Centre want to extend our sincerest thanks. Thank you for trusting us with your care, for the kind words, and for being part of our community in Sharjah. It’s been a privilege to be a part of your healthcare journey.
Now, with a fresh year ahead, it’s the perfect time to think proactively. Instead of just reacting to health issues, why not make 2026 the year you build a smarter, more intentional health plan? It’s not about drastic changes, but about thoughtful check-ins that give you peace of mind.
Shifting the Mindset: From “Fix It” to “Check It”
A great health plan is like maintaining a car. You don’t wait for the engine to smoke; you get regular oil changes and tire rotations. Your body deserves the same preventative care.
This means having conversations with your doctor about preventive health check-ups. These aren’t just for when you feel sick—they’re scheduled assessments based on your age, lifestyle, and family history to catch potential issues early, when they’re often most manageable.
Your Health Plan Building Blocks for 2026
Think of this as a conversation starter for your next doctor’s visit. What might be relevant for you to discuss?
1. Know Your Numbers (The Basics):
This is the foundation. Talk to your GP about checking:
- Blood pressure
- Cholesterol levels
- Blood sugar (for diabetes screening)
- Body Mass Index (BMI)
These simple tests can reveal a lot about your heart health and metabolic wellness.
2. Consider Age & Stage Appropriate Screenings:
This is where medical screening gets personal. Based on guidelines, your doctor might discuss:
- For Women: The appropriate schedule for mammograms (breast X-rays) and cervical cancer screenings (Pap smears).
- For Everyone: Discussions about colorectal cancer screening options (which can include scans like CT colonography) starting at a certain age.
- Bone Health: For post-menopausal women and older adults, a conversation about a DEXA scan to assess bone density might be timely.
