Positron Emission Tornography (PET) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is a molecular imaging scanning process which can reveal more detailed information to cell-level view, using a radioactive substance. dr Ivana Dewi Mulyanto, a nuclear medicine specialist from MRCCC Siloam Hospital, explained that FDG is injected into the blood vessels to find which cells that absorb more glucose, indicating cancer cells. PET FDG scan is utilized to distinguish benign and malignant tumor. Although it uses radiation, PET FDG scan gives minimum radiation exposure, as much as the same with radiology examination, therefore it is safe for all ages but not recommended to pregnant and breastfeeding women. dr Eko Purnomo from MRCCC Siloam Hospital said that PET FDG can also be used to examine Alzheimer, dementia, epilepsy, nerve and cardiovascular diseases.
