What is a Whole body PET CT Scan Test in Delhi ?

What is Whole body PET CT Scan?

A whole body PET CT scan measures how active cells are in different parts of the body. It uses a small amount of a radioactive tracer that highlights areas with high metabolism. It is non-invasive and shows internal structures directly, providing information that blood and urine tests cannot.

What does Whole body PET CT Scan show?

High uptake can show cancer, inflammation, or infection. The CT part gives detailed pictures of body structures. Together they help doctors find tumors, see if cancer has spread, and check treatment response. PET CT can also guide biopsy sites and plan radiation therapy.

What symptoms suggest Whole body PET CT Scan may be needed?

A doctor may recommend Whole body PET CT Scan when a patient reports localised pain, swelling, or injury, a lump or restricted movement, or an abnormal finding on an earlier test that needs to be examined directly. Sample collection for Delhi is available at labs and at home across Paschim Vihar, Saket, and surrounding neighbourhoods.

How is Whole body PET CT Scan done?

No needle or sample is involved. At an accredited imaging centre serving Paschim Vihar and Saket, Delhi, a radiographer performs the scan, which is painless and usually completed within 10 to 15 minutes. A qualified radiologist interprets the images and issues a report you can access on GetVisit. (Home collection does not apply to imaging.)

How accurate is Whole body PET CT Scan?

GetVisit partners only with accredited imaging centres in and around Paschim Vihar, Saket, and Delhi that use maintained, calibrated equipment and qualified radiographers. Every scan is interpreted by a qualified radiologist, and reports are accepted by hospital networks, specialists, and insurers across India.

Are there any risks to Whole body PET CT Scan?

Imaging is safe and non-invasive. Ultrasound and MRI use no ionising radiation; X-ray and CT use carefully controlled low doses justified by the diagnostic benefit. Inform staff at the Paschim Vihar or Saket, Delhi centre if you are pregnant or have implants or metal devices, so precautions can be taken.

Did you know?

PET CT can also guide biopsy sites and plan radiation therapy.

Whole body PET CT Scan Test Preparation in Delhi

Fasting and dietary instructions:

Most imaging scans need no fasting. Some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours of fasting or a full bladder, so follow the specific instruction shown when you book, or ask the centre.

Medication guidance:

Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.

What to bring:

Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.

Timing:

Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Greater Kailash or Dwarka, Delhi. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a Whole body PET CT Scan Test in Delhi ?

When does a doctor order Whole body PET CT Scan?

Whole body PET CT Scan is commonly used in cancer diagnosis, staging, and follow-up as part of an oncology imaging panel. Doctors may order it for unexplained weight loss, persistent pain, abnormal CT or MRI findings, or raised tumor markers.

Who should get Whole body PET CT Scan done in Delhi?

Delhi's 30+ million population, India's most severe urban air pollution, one of the country's highest combined diabetes and cardiovascular disease burdens, extreme seasonal temperature range (from 3°C in January to 48°C in May), and monsoon infection risk across Dwarka, Rohini, Shahdara, and Uttam Nagar make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential part of health management for all city residents. Imaging benefits patients with pain, swelling, a palpable lump, injury, or an abnormal earlier finding, as well as those monitoring a known condition. GetVisit helps residents of Saket, Rohini, and across Delhi book accredited imaging with clear pricing.

What can Whole body PET CT Scan help detect?

It helps detect primary tumors, metastasis, infection, or inflammation. Abnormal results can follow high blood sugar, recent surgery, infection, or inflammatory conditions. Family history of cancer often makes this scan more relevant.

What do Whole body PET CT Scan results mean?

Higher or positive results: A positive PET scan shows an area of increased metabolic activity, which often suggests cancer but can also reflect infection, inflammation, or recent surgery. Your doctor reads the value against the reference range on your report and your symptoms, and may repeat a borderline result to confirm it.

How often should Whole body PET CT Scan be repeated?

For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.

What happens after Whole body PET CT Scan results are ready?

You will be notified the moment results are ready, usually the same day for routine tests. Open the report in the GetVisit app to see each value beside its reference range, share it with your doctor in a tap, or book a specialist consultation to talk it through.

What is a PET CT whole body scan for?plus

A whole-body PET‑CT scan combines metabolic imaging (PET) with anatomical CT to detect and map abnormal metabolic activity throughout the body. It’s used to diagnose, stage and monitor cancers, find metastases, assess treatment response, guide biopsy and radiotherapy planning, and evaluate certain infections, inflammatory conditions, cardiac viability, or brain disorders such as dementia. It helps clinicians target and track disease.

Will a PET scan show all cancer in your body?plus

A PET scan detects many cancers by showing metabolic activity, but it will not reveal all cancer in the body. Very small lesions and tumors with low metabolic uptake (some prostate, renal, or mucinous cancers) can be missed, and inflammation may cause false positives. PET/CT improves accuracy, but diagnosis usually needs additional imaging, biopsy, and clinical correlation.

How long does a whole body PET CT scan take?plus

A whole-body PET-CT typically takes about 60–120 minutes from arrival to finish. After tracer injection there’s an uptake/wait of roughly 45–60 minutes (sometimes up to 90), then the scanning portion lasts about 20–40 minutes. Allow extra time for registration, positioning and staff review. Times vary by facility, protocol and whether additional scans or contrast are needed.

Why am I having a full body PET scan?plus

A full-body PET scan is done mainly to detect or stage cancer, find metastases or an unknown primary tumor, and monitor treatment response or recurrence. It can also evaluate unexplained symptoms like persistent weight loss, fever or pain, and detect active infection or inflammation. PET provides metabolic information, often combined with CT for precise anatomical localization to guide diagnosis and treatment planning.

Can Whole body PET CT Scan be combined with a health package?plus

Yes. Whole body PET CT Scan can be booked on its own or alongside related tests and packages on GetVisit. You can compare options and pricing before you confirm.

Do I need to fast before Whole body PET CT Scan?plus

Most scans need no fasting, but some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours without food or a full bladder. Follow the specific instruction shown when you book Whole body PET CT Scan, or check with the centre.
