Bone PET-CT (Positron Emission Tomography – Computed Tomography) using NaF-18 is a diagnostic imaging technique used to assess bone health and detect abnormalities such as fractures, infections, tumors, and metastases. NaF-18 is a radioactive tracer that binds to bone mineral, allowing PET-CT scans to highlight areas of increased bone activity or metabolism. This imaging modality is particularly useful in oncology for staging and monitoring skeletal metastases and in orthopedics for evaluating bone diseases and injuries.
Brain PET-CT (Positron Emission Tomography – Computed Tomography) is a sophisticated imaging technique that combines functional and anatomical information of the brain in a single scan. It involves the use of a radioactive tracer, such as FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose), which is injected into the bloodstream.
Regional PET-CT refers to a specialized imaging technique that focuses on a specific region of the body, rather than the whole body. It combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with Computed Tomography (CT) to provide detailed information about both the function and structure of a particular anatomical area.
PET cardiac viability imaging is a specialized diagnostic technique used to assess the viability of myocardial tissue (heart muscle) in patients with coronary artery disease or other cardiac conditions.
FDG PET (Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography): This part measures cellular activity. A safe radioactive sugar molecule called FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose) is injected into your bloodstream. Cancerous cells and other highly active cells take up more FDG, appearing brighter in the PET scan image
PSMA PET/CT scan is a sophisticated imaging modality used primarily in prostate cancer diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning. It involves the injection of a radioactive tracer that binds to PSMA receptors, which are highly expressed on prostate cancer cells. PET detects the radiation emitted by the tracer, while CT provides detailed anatomical images, allowing for precise localization and characterization of prostate cancer lesions
DOTANOC PET/CT scan is a specialized imaging modality used primarily in the diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). It involves the injection of a radioactive tracer called DOTANOC, which binds to somatostatin receptors that are overexpressed on NET cells. PET detects the radiation emitted by the tracer, while CT provides detailed anatomical images, allowing for precise localization and characterization of NET lesions.
FAPI (Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor): This refers to a radiotracer that targets fibroblast activation protein (FAP). FAP is a molecule overexpressed by cancer associated fibroblasts (CAFs) – supportive cells within the tumor microenvironment
Utilizing PET CT Scan in Bangalore enables effective visualization of various structures and conditions within the body,
How PET CT scan works?
Radiotracer Injection: A small and safe amount of radioactive material, known as a radiotracer, is administered through an intravenous (IV) line.
Detection of Diseased Cells: Diseased cells in the body, such as cancerous cells, absorb more of the radiotracer compared to healthy cells. These areas of increased radiotracer uptake are referred to as “hot spots.”
PET Scan Imaging: The PET scanner detects the radiation emitted by the radiotracer and creates images of the affected tissues, highlighting the locations of abnormal metabolic activity.
PET/CT Scan Combination: In some cases, a PET/CT scan is performed, where the PET scan images are combined with X-ray images from a CT scan. This integration provides more detailed anatomical information and improves the accuracy of the diagnosis.
