Preparation for Whole Body Pet Ct is critical for accurate results: (1) Fast for 6 hours before the scan (water is allowed). (2) Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours before the scan. (3) Diabetic patients — blood sugar must be below 200 mg/dL at the time of scan; your doctor may adjust insulin/medication timing. (4) Inform us about any recent surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy (a gap of 4-6 weeks is recommended). (5) Wear comfortable clothing without metal. (6) Bring all previous scan reports, biopsy reports, and your prescription.

A Whole Body Pet Ct at Henotic Diagnostics Uran takes approximately 2-3 hours in total: (1) Registration and blood sugar check — 15 minutes. (2) FDG radiotracer injection — 5 minutes. (3) Resting/uptake period — 60-90 minutes (you rest quietly in a private room while the tracer distributes). (4) Actual PET CT scan — 20-30 minutes. Please plan to be at the center for about 3 hours. Reports are typically available within 24-48 hours.

PET CT is one of the most powerful tools for cancer detection, staging, and treatment monitoring. It can detect: (1) Lung cancer. (2) Lymphoma (Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's). (3) Head and neck cancers. (4) Breast cancer. (5) Colorectal cancer. (6) Esophageal cancer. (7) Melanoma. (8) Cervical and uterine cancer. (9) Thyroid cancer. (10) Unknown primary tumors. PET CT detects cancer based on metabolic activity, often identifying disease before anatomical changes are visible on CT or MRI. It also evaluates treatment response after chemotherapy or radiation.

The radiation dose from a Whole Body Pet Ct is relatively small and considered safe for diagnostic purposes. The FDG radiotracer has a very short half-life (about 2 hours) and is naturally eliminated from the body within 6-12 hours. At Henotic Diagnostics Uran, we follow strict AERB guidelines and use optimized protocols to keep radiation doses as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA principle). The diagnostic benefit of PET CT in cancer evaluation far outweighs the minimal radiation risk. We recommend drinking plenty of water after the scan to help flush the tracer.
