WHAT IS PET/CT

A PET scan can distinguish between living and dead tissue or between benign and malignant disorders.  It detects these at the molecular level even before anatomic changes are visible.

A CT scan pinpoints changes in the structure such as the size, shape and exact location of an abnormal growth or a sizeable tumor.

Hence, the combination of PET & CT technologies such as a PET-CT scan is a powerful imaging and diagnostic tool in detecting, evaluating & monitoring most cancers with 90% to 95% accuracy.
