• What is an PET scan?

  PET scan or positron emission tomography scan is a technology introduced in the year 2000. This technology is used primarily for the detection and monitoring of cancer while there are diagnostic uses for other diseases related to the heart and brain as well.

  PET scan combines the two areas of radiology and nuclear medicine to give very detailed images of tissues and cells in the body. PET CT Scan can give images at the cellular level which other radiology tests like CT Scan or MRI cannot do. Hence, full body PET Scans are increasingly used to screen and monitor cancer, brain PET Scan for analyzing reasons for seizures and memory loss, and cardiac PET Scan for problems related to heart arteries. Whole-body PET Scan helps your doctor to diagnose the areas of cancer, how cancer is spreading and how cancer is responding to chemotherapy.

Why is the PET Scan unique?

A PET/CT scan is a hybrid scanner which provides both physiological/functional and morphological/ structural information enabling your doctor to make an accurate diagnosis and select appropriate treatment.
