About P.E.T.

Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is an early detection diagnostic imaging procedure for cancer, heart disease and neurological disorders. The PET procedure typically will alter the patient treatment in over 40% of the cases providing patients and their physicians with better treatment options and improved outcomes. Because PET obviates unnecessary surgery or therapies by detecting anomalies at the very earliest stages, the third party insurer realizes value for money by utilizing the PET procedures as a primary diagnostic tool.
