Irving, TX, Nov. 30, 2017 – The foundation of a successful treatment plan starts with sophisticated, accurate imagery. A radiology center offers solutions where patients access the latest technology which allows physicians to effectively discover the underlying medical conditions to be addressed.

“Through PET/CT imaging, we can diagnose, accurately pinpoint, and observe the existence of a disease, such as heart disease, cancer, and a range of brain disorders,” explains the radiologist at PET/CT of Las Colinas. “Our best in class imaging technology means unmatched accuracy and peace of mind for our patients.”

Here are the services offered by the radiology center to its patients:

§ PET Scans – Positron Emission Tomography Scan is an imaging technique that helps in the disease checking process. The scan utilizes a special dye containing radioactive tracers, which are injected into the patient. Body organs and tissues absorb the tracer, allowing the doctor to see how well they’re functioning. A PET scan can reveal the existence of different cancers including pancreatic, prostate, breast, lung, and brain cancer along with heart disease and more.



§ CT Scans – A computerized tomography scan is a combination of a series of X-ray images taken from varying angles and leverages computer processing to create cross-sectional slices or images of blood vessels, bones and soft tissues inside the body. Unlike the images from X-rays, CT scan images offer more detailed information and can accurately pinpoint a tumor location, show evidence of internal bleeding or injuries.



§ PET/CT imaging – Is a blend of the two tests and offers a unique representation of what’s happening in the body. The result can assist a physician to accurately diagnose different diseases at early stages when treatment is highly likely to be effective.

“During a single outpatient examination, using a PET/CT imaging technique provides us with detailed information concerning the presence or spread of the disease and accurately identifies its exact location,” explains the radiologist at PET/CT Las Colinas. “This eliminates any guesswork from the process.”
