Advanced Whole Body PET-CT Scans starting at just ₹8,999.
A Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) Scan is an advanced diagnostic imaging procedure that combines the functional imaging of PET (Positron Emission Tomography) with the detailed anatomical imaging of CT (Computed Tomography). This powerful combination enables doctors to detect diseases at a cellular level while precisely identifying their location within the body.
During the scan, a small amount of a safe radioactive tracer is injected into the bloodstream. Areas with increased metabolic activity—such as cancer cells, infections, or inflamed tissues—absorb more of the tracer and appear clearly on the images. PET-CT is painless, non-invasive, and one of the most accurate imaging techniques available for diagnosing and monitoring serious medical conditions.
PET-CT scans are commonly used for diagnosing:
Early detection of cancer, accurate tumour staging, identification of metastasis (spread of cancer), and assessment of treatment response.
Evaluating the effectiveness of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and surgery while detecting recurrence after treatment.
Assessing heart muscle viability, blood flow, and identifying damaged heart tissue before advanced cardiac procedures.
Evaluation of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, brain tumours, and other neurological conditions.

The most commonly performed PET-CT scan used for diagnosing, staging, and monitoring various cancers, including lung cancer, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lymphoma, head and neck cancers, and many others. It also helps detect cancer recurrence after treatment.
A highly specialised imaging test primarily used for prostate cancer. PSMA PET-CT accurately detects primary prostate cancer, recurrent disease, lymph node involvement, and distant metastasis, enabling precise treatment planning.
Absolutely. PET-CT scans are very safe when conducted under professional medical supervision. The tracer dye involves a tiny, controlled dose of radiation that naturally breaks down and flushes out of your system shortly after the test.
Plan to spend about 2 to 3 hours at the diagnostic centre. This covers the initial setup, giving the radioactive tracer time to absorb into your body, and the actual scanning process itself.
Yes, you will need to fast for 4 to 6 hours before your appointment to ensure clear imaging. You can—and should—drink plenty of plain water during this time unless your doctor gives you different instructions.
Not at all. Besides a quick, minor prick when the tracer is injected, the scan itself is completely non-invasive and painless.
Your detailed report will usually be ready within 24 to 48 hours, depending on the specific complexity of your scan.
Doctors typically order PET-CT scans to detect potential cancers, monitor ongoing treatments, check for cancer recurrence, or evaluate specific heart and neurological conditions.
Remember to bring your doctor’s prescription, any previous imaging (like CT, MRI, or older PET-CT scans), biopsy or pathology reports, and recent blood test results. Having these helps the specialist review your case accurately.
