PET/CT FDG Breast
FDG-PET Brain Scan at RadCare: Comprehensive Glucose Metabolism Assessment
The FDG-PET (Fluoro-Deoxy-Glucose Positron Emission Tomography) scan is a cutting-edge imaging technique used to evaluate glucose metabolism in the body. This method is particularly valuable for identifying increased glucose metabolism in conditions such as tumors or infections, as well as decreased metabolism in certain brain disorders.
Indications for FDG-PET Brain Scan:
Epilepsy Diagnosis:
- Identifies brain regions with abnormal activity or reduced glucose metabolism, aiding in the precise localization of seizure origins.
Dementia Diagnosis:
- Detects functional deterioration in brain areas due to decreased glucose metabolism, assisting in the diagnosis of various dementia types, including Alzheimer’s disease.
How Does the FDG-PET Brain Scan Work?
Injection of FDG:
- A small dose of the radioactive FDG is injected into the bloodstream.
Brain Absorption:
- FDG is absorbed by brain cells based on their metabolic activity.
PET Imaging:
- PET technology detects changes in glucose metabolism across different brain regions, creating detailed metabolic maps.
Advantages of FDG-PET Brain Scan at RadCare:
High Accuracy:
- Provides precise insights into the brain’s metabolic activity, enabling early and accurate diagnosis.
