Benefits of a PET/CT scan

  • Earlier Diagnosis
  • Efficiently monitors the effectiveness of treatment
  • May eliminate the necessity of invasive procedures such as biopsies
  • Can be use for pre-treatment planning (whether a person is a surgical candidate)
  • Can be used to locate other sites of metastasis within the body
  • This can help distinguish between several neurological diseases (such as Alzheimers and Dementia)
  • Helps in determining if patients with uncontrolled seizures might benefit from surgery
  • Evaluation of coronary artery disease-blockages in the arteries of the heart
  • Assess the metabolic activity of the heart muscle (helps to determine whether a person would benefit from Coronary Bypass Grafting or a heart transplant)
