The Whole-Body PET Scan with 18F-DOPA is a highly specialised molecular imaging technique used to evaluate neuroendocrine tumours, Parkinsonian syndromes, certain types of brain disorders, and rare metabolic conditions.
18F-DOPA (Fluorodopa) is a radiotracer that mimics the natural amino acid L-DOPA and is selectively absorbed by neuroendocrine cells and dopaminergic neurons. This enables precise visualisation of tumours and functional abnormalities that may not be visible on standard CT, MRI, or FDG PET scans.
This package includes a full-body 18F-DOPA PET/CT scan performed by expert nuclear medicine physicians using high-resolution PET-CT systems. The scan provides detailed metabolic information, helps localise even small lesions, and assists clinicians in early diagnosis, staging, and treatment planning with high accuracy.
18F-DOPA PET is especially valuable for diagnosing neuroendocrine tumours, pediatric congenital hyperinsulinism, and movement disorders, making it a powerful tool for personalised medicine.
