LIVER ELASTOGRAPHY
SHEAR WAVE ELASTOGRAPHY Shear wave elastography is a newer ultrasound technology used to check tissue stiffness. A transducer delivers high-intensity pulses that produce shear waves, which create a higher-quality image. The concept is similar to strain elastography, but instead of using transducer pressure to compare a shift in an ultrasound A-line (thereby measuring changes in strain), a […]
Neuro PET
What is Positron Emission Tomography (PET)? Positron emission tomography (PET) is a type of nuclear medicine procedure that measures metabolic activity of the cells of body tissues. PET is actually a combination of nuclear medicine and biochemical analysis. Used mostly in patients with brain or heart conditions and cancer, PET helps to visualize the biochemical […]
Gallium PET (GA 68)- DOTATOC AND PSMA
A DOTATOC scan, also known as a Ga-68 dotatate scan, is used for diagnosing and Neuro Endocrine Tumours(NETs) and A PSMA PET scan detects a radioactive tracer that binds to the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) protein, which is found on the surface of prostate cancer cells.
