PET Scans (Positron Emission Tomography) & Nuclear Medicine Technologists

An overview of PET scan technology, how it works to detect diseases, and the role of nuclear medicine technologists.A PET (Positron Emission Tomography) scan is an imaging test that helps detect early signs of diseases like cancer, heart disease, and brain disorders. It works by using a small, safe amount of radioactive tracer injected into the body to highlight diseased cells.
