 In the ever-evolving field of medical diagnostics, the PET CT FDG Whole Body Scan  in Gurgaon has emerged as a powerful and precise tool for detecting and monitoring various diseases—most notably cancer. This hybrid imaging technique blends two technologies— Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) —to provide detailed insights into both the structure and function of tissues and organs. What is a PET CT FDG Whole Body Scan? A PET CT FDG scan involves injecting a small amount of a radioactive sugar molecule called Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) into the bloodstream. FDG is a glucose analog tagged with fluorine-18, a mildly radioactive tracer. Since cancer cells are typically more metabolically active than normal cells, they absorb more of this glucose tracer. The PET scan detects the radiation emitted by the FDG, highlighting areas of high metabolic activity. The CT scan, performed simultaneously, provides detailed anatomical images, helping precisely lo...
