What is a PET CT Scan
Positron Emission Tomography(PET) Imaging is an imaging technique that injects a minimal amount of radioactive drug(tracer) to detect and evaluate the metabolic activity of cells in our body. It is a non-invasive process that helps to diagnose and stage some cancers they can help doctors to conclude which treatment best suits your condition. It consists of two different imaging technologies in a single scan. PET measures the body’s biological processes. CT(computed tomography scan) generates high resolution images of body’s anatomy. By combining both sets of information into a single three-dimensional image this helps to reveal the patient’s condition at a very early stage.
By using these two scans(PET/CT scan) radiologists to accurately diagnose and detect heart disease, brain disorders and cancer. At Medifyhome, we ensure you receive top-quality diagnostic imaging at competitive prices.

How does PET CT Scan work
The PET scanner tracks the position of the tracers inside body revealing organs function in three dimensions. The radioactivity is produced using a device called Cyclotron. It smashes high speed particles into ordinary atoms transforming them into new, radioactive atoms. Each molecule is customised to a specific function in the body and shows doctors which part of body that functioning happening. The right level of radioactivity is measured out then it’s injected into bloodstream. Now reaction is taking place the radioactive atom on the tracer loses its radioactivity giving off a subatomic particle called a positron. Different tracers can detect cancer test, heart function and even track Alzheimer’s.
