PET/CT scanners have become widely adopted in today’s medical field—and for good reason. This advanced technology provides your doctor with a clearer, more complete picture of what’s happening inside your body. It helps detect health problems early, guide treatment decisions, and monitor progress with remarkable precision. At Halo Body Scan, we’re proud to offer this state-of-the-art imaging to patients in Oklahoma and the surrounding areas—because sometimes, a second look can make all the difference.
What makes PET/CT scans so powerful? They combine two advanced imaging technologies into one: PET (Positron Emission Tomography) reveals how your tissues and organs are functioning at the cellular level, while CT (Computed Tomography) provides clear, cross-sectional images of your body’s internal anatomy. Together, they offer a more complete and accurate picture of your health.
Now, let’s explore the key differences between PET and CT scans when each is used and why their combination can have a meaningful impact on your care.
CT and PET scans are essential diagnostic tools in modern medicine, each playing a unique role in medical imaging. When combined, PET/CT scans offer significant advantages over using either technology alone. This powerful combination enhances accuracy in detecting serious diseases like cancer, allows for precise lesion localization, and provides more detailed staging. It also streamlines diagnosis and treatment planning while delivering a comprehensive evaluation of treatment effectiveness. Together, these benefits lead to better patient outcomes and more personalized care. If you’re in Oklahoma or the surrounding area and need PET/CT scan services, you can count on Halo Body Scan to support your health journey.
