Steps to perform PET/CT Scan
A PET scan measures important body functions, like metabolism. It helps doctors to check how well organs and tissues are functioning properly or not.
The following steps that are considered during a PET scan:
- Patient will receive an IV injection of a radiotracer that contains some amount of a radioactive drug fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).
- The whole PET scan took 2 hours. Normally it takes up to 60 minutes for your body to absorb the radiotracer.
- During this time, you will have to sit quietly and try to not produce movements.
- In an hour, the organs and tissues absorb the radiotracer. Doctors sometimes also uses contrast dye. This dye helps produce more clearly visible CT images.
- During the scan, the patient need to remain still in position. Movement can makes the images blur.

A PET scan uses a tiny amount of radioactive material called a radiotracer, a camera and a computer to create images of the inside of your body. PET scans are most commonly used to detect or monitor cancer. Doctors sometimes also use a PET scan to evaluate heart and brain functioning.

After the injection, the tracer will move through the body and take in tissues and organs. A patient will got to await about an hour for his or her body to soak up the tracer.
- After the tracers are absorbed, the positron emission tomography scanner will detect the tracer and switch the info into 3-D images on a computer monitor. Some imaging centers combine PET scans with CT scans to make specialized images.
