PET/CT

PET stands for Positron Emission Tomography. A PET scan demonstrates the biological function of the body, while the CT scan provides information about the body’s anatomy such as size, shape and location.

By combining these two scanning technologies, a PET/CT scan enables physicians to more accurately diagnose and identify cancer, heart disease and brain disorders.
