PET scans give information about the body's chemistry that is not available with other imaging techniques.
PET scans reveal metabolic information (as opposed to anatomical information), providing your physician with extra insight.
Because PET scanning often reveals disease much earlier than conventional diagnostic procedures (such as CT or MRI), it can help physicians diagnose disease faster. |
