A PET scan provides a three–dimensional image of the body that makes it easy to detect the presence of a malignant tumor. Cancer cells have a higher metabolic rate than normal body cells and a PET scan takes advantage of this while imaging. The patient is injected with a radiopharmaceutical tracer called FDG (fluoro–deoxyglucose, a radioactive substance containing glucose) one hour prior to the scheduled imaging. The radiotracer spreads throughout the body through the blood stream and gets absorbed by cells and starts emitting small amounts of energy (positrons). The positrons collide with electrons resulting in the production of photons that travel in opposite directions. The photon emission is captured by the PET scanner and processed with a computer to produce a three–dimensional image of the body tissues. Cancerous cells show a high radiotracer uptake and are highly visible in the scan in comparison to healthy cells.",CPT 78813,Other Diagnostic Nuclear Medicine Procedures.,"In this diagnostic procedure, the provider performs PET, positron emission tomography of the whole body.

The positrons collide with electrons resulting in the production of photons that travel in opposite directions. The photon emission is captured by the PET scanner and is processed in a computer to give a three–dimensional image of the body tissues being studied. Cancerous cells display a high radiotracer uptake and are highly visible in the scan in comparison to healthy cells. But the PET scan has a limitation in terms of pinpointing the location of a tumor. This shortcoming is overcome by the combination of a PET and CT. The CT scan produces thin cross–sectional slices of internal organs.
