The Whole-Body PET Scan with FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose PET Scan) is one of the most advanced, widely used molecular imaging techniques for detecting abnormal metabolic activity across the entire body.

FDG is a glucose-based radiotracer that highlights cells with increased glucose uptake—most commonly cancer cells, inflammatory lesions, and certain infections—making it a powerful tool in oncology, neurology, and systemic disease evaluation.

This comprehensive package includes a full-body FDG PET/CT performed by expert nuclear medicine physicians using cutting-edge PET-CT scanners. The scan generates high-resolution metabolic and anatomical images of organs, lymph nodes, bones, and soft tissues, enabling early detection, accurate staging, treatment response assessment, and recurrence monitoring.

FDG PET is considered a gold-standard diagnostic imaging test because of its sensitivity, precision, and ability to detect disease even when conventional imaging such as CT, MRI, or ultrasound appears normal.

Information related to Treatment

A Whole-Body FDG PET Scan is a specialised molecular imaging test that uses a glucose-based radiotracer (FDG) to identify areas of abnormal metabolic activity.

It helps detect cancer, infection, inflammation, and other metabolic abnormalities throughout the body.

FDG PET provides critical diagnostic insights and helps clinicians:

  • Detect cancer early and accurately
  • Identify tumour spread (metastasis)
  • Evaluate how well treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, immunotherapy) is working
  • Differentiate active tumour from scar tissue or post-treatment changes
  • Detect infection, inflammation, or unknown fever sources
  • Map disease activity when symptoms are unclear or widespread

It is widely used across oncology, infectious diseases, and neurology.

  • A small dose of FDG tracer is injected into a vein.
  • The patient rests quietly during the uptake period (45–60 minutes).
  • Whole-body PET/CT images are taken from head to toe.
  • The scan takes 20–30 minutes.
  • Total procedure time: 1.5–2 hours.

Yes. FDG PET uses a low and clinically safe dose of radiation.

The tracer is naturally eliminated from the body within a few hours through normal metabolism and hydration.

Preparation may include:

  • Fasting for 6 hours before the scan
  • Avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Staying hydrated
  • Avoiding caffeine and alcohol
  • Continuing regular medications unless advised otherwise

Your care team will provide specific instructions tailored to your condition.

Doctors recommend FDG PET for:

  • Suspected or confirmed cancers (lung, breast, lymphoma, colorectal, head & neck, melanoma, etc.)
  • Staging and restaging of known cancers
  • Monitoring response to chemotherapy, radiation, or immunotherapy
  • Detecting recurrence when tumour markers rise
  • Evaluating unexplained fever or infection
  • Assessing inflammatory diseases such as sarcoidosis
  • Certain neurological or cardiac conditions

FDG PET helps identify:

  • Active cancer cells
  • Metastasis in lymph nodes, bones, and organs
  • Recurrence after treatment
  • Infection or abscesses
  • Inflammatory and autoimmune disorders
  • Treatment-related changes vs. active disease
  • Metabolic abnormalities across multiple organ systems
