PET-CT Cancer Imaging

Bryant Furlow. Radiol Technol. 2018 Nov.

Abstract

Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging combines the anatomic precision of CT with the molecular-metabolic detail of PET. This creates information-enriched images that can inform diagnostic oncology, tumor staging, treatment planning, and treatment monitoring.
