• Aftab PET-Scan Center, Kermanshah:
A PET-Scan (Positron Emission Tomography) is a medical imaging technique that uses radioactive tracers and advanced scanners to assess the function and metabolism of organs and tissues. Unlike conventional imaging methods that show only the structure of body parts, PET-Scans can detect metabolic and functional changes, providing a more precise diagnosis for complex conditions. This feature enables PET-Scan imaging to play a crucial role in early cancer detection, assessment of brain function in conditions such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, and evaluation of cardiovascular diseases.
