Individuals may apply for an endorsement to be placed on their driver license. Depending on the type of endorsement, an individual may be required to provide additional information, complete a separate application, or pass a knowledge test specific to the type of endorsement the individual is seeking.
PET/CT imaging helps physicians detect cancer, evaluate the extent of disease, select the most appropriate treatments, determine if the therapy is working, and detect any recurrent tumors. Before a PET/CT scan, the patient receives an intravenous injection of radioactive glucose.
A PET scan is most often used when other tests, such as MRI scan or CT scan, do not provide enough information. A breast PET scan is used only after a woman has been diagnosed with breast cancer. It is done to see if the cancer has spread to other parts of the body, such as the lymph nodes, liver, lung, or bones.
