To know... or not to know... for sure... is no longer a question.

PET (Positron Emission Tomography) makes the difference!

PET can help you!

PET can help...

...detecting, qualifying and quantifying with great precision (sensitivity and specificity), non-invasively and without painful biopsy. Most of all, PET is the most effective tool in guiding therapeutic management decisions in cancer and heart patients.

In Oncology PET can...

...detect and precisely locate a tumor by way of measuring it's activity then grade and stage it (even differentiating where a tumor is malignant or benign) for "early intervention" therapy, when such therapy is necessary. All this by measuring function (biochemistry) of the tumor, a diagnostic procedure not available from anatomic imaging procedures such as X-Ray, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Ultrasound.

In Cardiology PET can...

...detect, qualify and quantify with great precision (sensitivity and specificity) tissue viability, blood flow characteristics and, most of all, predict Therapeutic Success (Angioplasty, Bypass, Transplant).

In Neurology PET can...

...detect, precisely locate, then qualify and quantify tumors. Differentiate between Dementia, Alzheimer and Huntington. Diagnose movement disorders (Parkinson), detect foci in Epilepsy and generally be in support of therapeutic intervention.
