■ What is PET-CT, the cutting-edge cancer diagnosis?
● Features of PET-CT
Cancer cells consume about 3 to 8 times more glucose
than normal cells. When 18F-FDG glucose analog is
used in the test, it will accumulate more than normal
level if there is a cancerous lesion. A PET-CT camera
is often used to find where the cancer is.
● Early Detection is Essential for Cancer Treatment
To cure the cancer, finding it in its early stage and starting to
treat it is very important. Conventionally, examinations
were required to perform separately for each part of the
body, such as the lungs and intestines. With the advent of a
new diagnostic device called PET (Positron Emission
Tomography), cancer inspections can be done by one time
scan for whole body. In addition, with the development of
the latest PET-CT technology which combines PET and CT
scans, more precise and quick inspections and diagnosis
becomes possible.
