A PET CT Scan is an advanced diagnostic imaging test that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) to detect abnormal metabolic activity inside the body.
Unlike traditional imaging methods, PET CT helps doctors identify disease activity at the cellular level, making it highly valuable for cancer diagnosis, staging, treatment planning, and follow-up.
Most Common
One of the most commonly performed PET scans, used for detecting and evaluating various cancers.
Prostate
An advanced imaging technique mainly used for prostate cancer evaluation.
Neuroendocrine
A specialised molecular imaging test used for detecting neuroendocrine tumours.
The exact cost of a PET Scan varies from patient to patient. These are the main factors our team reviews before sharing a quote:
Affordable, without compromising accuracy High-quality PET CT imaging at CBD Belapur, priced fairly for every patient.
A PET Scan uses a small amount of radioactive tracer that highlights areas with increased metabolic activity.
A small amount of radioactive tracer is injected into the patient's vein.
The tracer travels through the body and collects in areas with increased activity.
The PET CT scanner captures detailed images showing metabolic and structural information.
Radiologists analyse the PET CT images and prepare a detailed diagnostic report.
PET CT Scan is commonly used for the following:
Helps identify various cancers, including:
Helps doctors understand:
Doctors use PET Scan to evaluate:
PET Scan helps identify whether cancer has returned after treatment.
A quick look at what to do before your visit, and what to expect once you're here.
The scan is generally painless and designed for patient comfort.
PET and CT scans provide different types of information. Understanding the difference helps determine which imaging approach is appropriate for a particular clinical need.
PET imaging shows areas of increased metabolic activity within the body.
CT imaging provides detailed anatomical and structural information about the body.
PET + CT together: PET CT combines metabolic information from PET with detailed anatomical information from CT.
A PET Scan is an advanced imaging test used to detect abnormal metabolic activity in the body. It is commonly used for cancer detection, staging, treatment monitoring, and recurrence evaluation.
PET Scan cost depends on the type of scan required, tracer used, and medical indication. Contact for current pricing.
No. PET Scan is a non-invasive procedure. The injection of tracer may cause minimal discomfort.
The complete process usually takes a few hours, including tracer preparation and imaging time.
PET CT involves a controlled amount of radiation exposure. Doctors recommend it when the diagnostic benefits outweigh the risks.
PSMA PET Scan is mainly used for prostate cancer detection, staging, and recurrence evaluation.
PET Scan can identify abnormal metabolic activity and helps doctors detect and evaluate cancer at different stages.
Report availability depends on the type of scan and clinical evaluation. Our team will guide you regarding reporting timelines.
