Importance of PET-CT scan in Lungs Cancer

  • 6 years ago
Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that start off in one or both lungs. When cancer starts in lung cells, it is called primary lung cancer. Primary lung cancer originates in the lungs, while secondary lung cancer starts somewhere else in the body, metastasizes, and reaches the lungs. They are considered different types of cancers and are not treated in the same way.

There are two types of Lungs Cancer - 1) Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 2) Small cell lungs cancer. A PET scan goes beyond anatomy to show what is happening at a cellular level in the tissues of the lung.Combining PET/CT technology enables our doctors to know where the healthy lung tissue ends and the tumor begins. A PET scan also reveals cancerous cells before any structural changes are present. This precisely pinpoints tumors, so that we may properly diagnose and stage the disease, and focus treatment on the cancerous tissues.
