PET-CT

PET-CT (Positron Emission Tomography with Computed Tomography) is the gold standard in cancer diagnostics. It is the most informative examination, capable of detecting even minimal signs of tumor activity — in cases where other methods are still “silent.”


PET-CT in Oncology

Early Diagnosis. PET-CT detects increased metabolic activity in cells before structural changes appear.

Tumor Staging. Accurately determines the extent of the disease and the presence of metastases.

Treatment Monitoring. Allows assessment of the effectiveness of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy after just a few courses.

Detection of Recurrence. Crucial when there is suspicion of the disease returning, especially after surgery or radiation therapy.

Radiation Therapy and Radiosurgery Planning. PET-CT helps precisely outline the tumor boundaries for highly targeted treatment.


How does a PET-CT scan work?

The patient is injected with a radiopharmaceutical that accumulates in cells with high metabolic activity — such as tumor cells. After 40–60 minutes, scanning is performed.

The procedure is non-invasive, painless, and does not require hospitalization.
