PET /CT
1. What is a PET/CT?
PET/CT is the workhorse of modern onco imaging which can detect disease that is not identified on conventional CT scans alone. PET/CT scan consists of 2 components – the diagnostic CT (computed tomography) scan (anatomical) and the PET (positron emission tomography) scan (functional) – both in the same sitting.
2. How will PET/CT scan help in a patient’s treatment?
Improved Diagnosis
See MORE, See BETTER, See EARLIER : The significantly improved precision (higher imaging / diagnostic accuracy) of co-registration of anatomy and function (down to the molecular level) by the PET/CT results in improved reader (nuclear physician) confidence in earlier detection of disease precise localization and interpretation (characterization) of the hyper metabolic disease areas marked reduction in inconclusive scan findings.
Better Evaluation to devising treatment protocol
The PET/CT scan results not only help to have a major impact on physicians’ diagnosis of cancer but also helps the physician to predict the likely outcome of various therapeutic alternatives during primary staging / re-staging of cancer planning and individualizing treatment protocols and methods by efficiently monitoring the response of the disease to treatment.
Impacting disease management & lives
Lesser time & better patient compliance Both functional and detailed anatomical imaging done in a single setting. Avoiding unnecessary surgeries and invasive procedures. Reducing treatment related side effects. Reducing overall treatment costs. Besides revolutionizing cancer diagnosis and treatment protocols, the PET/CT is a powerful tool for diagnostic assessment of modern day diseases such as neuro degenerative disorders (alzheimer's, parkinson's disease etc.) and coronary artery disease.
