EDUCATION
PET scans are considered the gold standard in cancer imaging for diagnosis and staging around the world, but are only used in Canada under clinical trials. Therefore, your doctor/specialist may not yet know about the life-saving benefits of PET technology. Please help CareImaging educate Canadian doctors. Print out any of the following "Educational PET Scan Packages" and give it to your doctor as soon as possible.
Take your health into your own hands. A PET scan can give your doctor the information on your specific cancer that you need to survive.
