I imagine this is just scratching the surface and before long we'll be doing full-body, 3D scans every few years and everything from cancers (all of them) to heart disease, to gastero-intestinal issues, to things even as mundane as acne and dandruff will be diagnosed by algorithms pulling on a cumulative database of images of healthy and diseased body parts. The real hope is to be able to see into the brain and pick up things like CTE and Alzheimers years before symptoms manifest.
