When it comes to diagnosing and monitoring cancer, precision is everything. At Rohilkhand Cancer Institute (RCI) in Bareilly, we offer advanced PET Scan (Positron Emission Tomography) services — a critical tool in the fight against cancer.

 What is a PET Scan?

A PET scan is a highly sophisticated imaging technique that helps doctors see how organs and tissues are functioning inside your body. Unlike traditional imaging, PET scans reveal metabolic changes at the cellular level — often detecting cancer earlier than other tests.

A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that can help reveal the metabolic or biochemical function of the body’s tissues and organs. The PET scan uses a radioactive drug called a tracer to show both typical and atypical metabolic activity. A PET scan can often detect the atypical metabolism of the tracer in diseases before the disease shows up on other imaging tests, such as computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

The tracer is most often injected into a vein within your hand or arm. The tracer will then collect into areas of your body that have higher levels of metabolic or biochemical activity. This often pinpoints the location of the disease. The PET images are typically combined with CT or MRI and are called PET-CT or PET-MRI scans.

Doctors at RCI recommend PET scans for:

• Detecting cancer

• Staging cancer (understanding its spread)

• Brain.
