When it comes to cancer, timing isn’t just important — it can be life-changing. That’s where PET CT scans step in. They don’t just show images; they reveal hidden activity inside your body long before symptoms even appear. And at MRI Chandigarh, this technology is used to help patients get answers with clarity and confidence.
A PET CT scan works by tracking how your cells use energy. Since cancer cells grow and multiply faster, they consume more glucose than normal cells. The scan detects this unusual activity and highlights these “hot spots.” This means that even the tiniest tumors or early-stage abnormalities can be picked up — often before they cause noticeable signs.
What makes PET CT so powerful is its ability to combine two types of imaging:
PET shows cell activity
CT shows a detailed structure
Together, they create a clear map of what’s happening inside the body.
Early detection gives doctors the one thing cancer doesn’t want them to have: a head start. It improves treatment planning, helps track progress, and offers patients peace of mind.
