1. PET-CT scan, also known as Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography
scan, is a diagnostic imaging test that combines two imaging techniques to create
detailed images of the body. PET-CT scans are particularly useful for detecting and
monitoring cancer, as well as for diagnosing other conditions that affect the
metabolism of cells in the body.
During a PET CT scan, a small amount of a radioactive tracer is injected into the
patient's blood. It gets accumulated in areas of the body with high metabolic activity,
such as cancer cells. The PET scanner then detects the tracer and creates a three-
dimensional image of the body that shows the location and activity of the cells.
The CT component of the scan uses X-rays to create detailed images of the body's
anatomy, including the size and shape of organs and tissues. These images are then
combined with PET images to create a comprehensive picture of the body's metabolic
activity and anatomy. PET-CT scans are particularly useful for detecting and
monitoring cancer. If you are a resident of Delhi-NCR, you can search online for
