PET technology provides

images of radiolabeled molecules (tracers) injected into the patient’s bloodstream to show how the molecules are distributed in the body. The information supplied by PET is of a functional, metabolic or biochemical nature.

CT is an imaging procedure that uses x-ray equipment to create detailed anatomical, structural or morphological pictures. PET/CT fusion shortens the PET imaging time and increases the accuracy and certainty of locating lesions.

Characteristics of PET-CT system Siemens

PET system with the latest crystal technology that allows:

• Optimal performance scan times
• Detection capability of injury, with lower doses of radiation, which are reduced to 50%

High-tech CT, which allows you:

• Image quality and unprecedented detail
• With less patient exposure

Accelerates and improves diagnostic reliability:

• Sensitivity for the detection of lesions below 5 mm in size,
• In the shortest possible time (10-15 minutes)
