Do MSIs contain a checksum?

I'm writing a utility to deploy some MSIs on remote machines. Do MSI files contain a built-in checksum that will be checked when they are run, or do I need to write something to check that they have been downloaded OK? The MSIs will be created with WiX if that makes any difference.

Digitally sign the MSI and you'll know if it's valid or not.
