Benefits of the Latest Integrated Pet CT + MRI

The latest integrated Pet CT + MRI Technology has changed the landscape of cancer detection and diagnosis, for the better. As many would understand, it is the diagnosis and detection of cancer at the earliest that makes it possible to cure this malicious disease. Most of the people who have battled the disease and won undoubtedly say that it is the timely detection of the disease that has helped them to go under right medication and be cured.

As the case is, let us take a look at the various advantages of the integrated Pet CT + MRI technology in cancer detection.

• It is a hybrid technology:It blends two technologies into one making the process of cancer detection easier, more accurate and detailed than ever. This helps the physicians to get a whole lot of information helping them understand the cancerous growth much better than any other type of scanning can.
• Less radiation:When patients are scanned through the integrated Pet CT + MRI technology, the chances of them getting radiated are significantly lesser than other technologies where the number of times a patient has to undergo scanning is higher.
• Enhanced patient experience:Since the latest technology is more accurate with improved efficiency in the detection of local cancerous growth, it can help the doctor—and the patients—get more information about their condition. This can provide the physicians with effective and better understanding of the grade and stage of the tumor helping them in the surgical and medical planning for the patient.

As you would have already seen, the advantages of using an integrated Pet CT + MRI are numerous. However in Kerala, there are only quite a few diagnostic centers which make use of this impressive technology for cancer detection.

Here, we strategically fuse together MRI Data and PET CT images to come up with more relevant information. This includes:

• All head and neck malignancies
• All pelvic malignancies
• Peripheral bone/soft tissue sarcoma
• Brain PET CT - Tumor recurrence vs radiation necrosis-Glioma evaluation

Regional PET MRI evaluation helps in TNM Staging (pre surgical/radiation therapy evaluation). These together paves way for overall cost effectiveness when compared to whole body PET MRI

Imaging lily has understood the value of latest technologies to help the people with earlier and accurate cancer or tumor growth detection for patients. With the right understanding of the disease and the support of the amicable professionals, Imaging Lily makes cancer detection easier and affordable for everyone in need.
