PET/CT GUIDED BIOPSY

What is PET/CT?
PET/CT combines the strengths of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with those of Computed Tomography (CT) to produce images that can be used to help diagnose a number of diseases. PET is non-invasive, nuclear medicine procedure that is able to detect certain diseases before other imaging modalities by visualizing the metabolic processes occurring in the body. By injecting a radioactive tracer into the body and tracking the tracer?s distribution, PET is able to identify chem- ical and physiological changes related to metabolism. This is important since the metabolic changes shown by PET often occur before structural changes develop. CT produces a detailed anatomic map of the body and shows structural abnormalities in minute detail.
