PET-CT

PET-CT is a medical imaging technique that combines two methods: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT). PET uses a small amount of radioactive material to visualize metabolic processes in the body, helping to identify diseases like cancer. CT scans provide detailed images of the body's structure. When used together, PET-CT offers a comprehensive view, allowing doctors to see both the function and anatomy of organs and tissues. This dual imaging helps in diagnosing conditions, assessing treatment effectiveness, and planning surgeries, making it a powerful tool in modern medicine.
