The amount of radiation used in a PET scan is about the same amount as used in most CT scans. These scans use short-lived tracers, so the radiation is gone from your body in about 2 to 10 hours. Tell your doctor before having this test if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Overview. A positron emission tomography scan is an imaging test that uses nuclear medicine to view the body on a cellular level. The PET scan measures body functions, such as blood flow, metabolism and oxygen use, and may be used to detect disease, like cancer, and heart and brain problems. There are different types of PET scans. You may need to follow a low-carbohydrate diet 12 hours prior to a PET scan.
