CT Scan

A PET CT Scan is a combination of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) into one scan to give both metabolic activity and detailed anatomical images of the body. It is primarily used for cancer detection, staging, treatment monitoring, and neurological evaluations.

Scans World's 160 Slice Digital PET CT is up to 70% faster than conventional PET CT systems, delivers significantly lower radiation exposure, requires a lower dose of injection, and uses AI-powered imaging making it safer, faster, and more accurate than older systems.

PET CT is used to detect and stage various cancers, evaluate heart conditions, assess brain disorders like Alzheimer's and epilepsy, monitor treatment response, and detect early-stage disease activity that may not be visible on regular CT or MRI scans.

Scans World utilizes the latest digital technology to offer significantly lower radiation levels and a reduced injection dose, making it a safer choice, especially for patients who need repeat imaging or are at higher risk.

PET CT helps in detecting lung cancer, breast cancer, lymphoma, colorectal cancer, head and neck cancers, brain tumours and many other malignancies enabling early detection and accurate staging for better treatment planning.

PET CT is referred by oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, neurologists, cardiologists and surgical specialists to determine the spread of cancer, to monitor the effectiveness of treatment and to assess complex neurological or cardiac conditions.

Scans World employs 160-slice digital technology and AI-driven processing to deliver a full-body PET CT scan in just 8 minutes, over 3 times faster than traditional systems, drastically decreasing patient discomfort and waiting time.

Fasting period, prior to scan 4–6 hours. Blood sugar levels will be checked prior to the injection. It’s suggested clothing be comfortable and without metal. You will be given detailed preparation instructions specific to your scan at the time of booking by the Scans World team.
