Positron Emission Tomography

Better known as PET SCAN. It is a powerful imaging technique that holds great promise in the diagnosis and treatment of many diseases, particularly cancer. A non-invasive test, PET scans accurately image the cellular function of the human body. In a single PET scan your physician can examine your entire body. PET scanning provides a more complete picture, making it easier for your doctor to diagnose problems, determine the extent of disease, prescribe treatment, and track progress.
Why am I talking about this? Well, mum will be leaving for Spore this thursday for PET SCAN. This is to detect whether there are active cancer cells or any other old infection in her body. Lets pray to Allah s.w.t hopefully everything goes smoothly. Aminnn....
Oh.... life.......
