PET and CT
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging is an advanced nuclear medicine procedure that shows the molecular functioning of organs and tissues. A PET scan measures important body functions, such as blood flow, oxygen use, and metabolism, to help doctors evaluate how well organs and tissues are functioning.
Computed Tomography (CT) imaging uses special X-ray equipment to produce multiple images or pictures of the metabolic processes inside of the body. CT imaging provides excellent anatomic information. A radiologist interprets these images to assess the condition of a patient.
PET and CT scans are also performed to:
- Detect cancer
- Determine whether cancer has spread in the body
- Assess the effectiveness of a treatment plan, such as cancer therapy
- Determine if cancer has returned after treatment
- Determine blood flow to the heart muscle
- Determine the effects of a heart attack
- Evaluate brain abnormalities, such as tumors or memory disorder
