Providing leading-edge evaluation of
cancer,
heart disease & Alzheimer’s disease.
Computed tomography (CT).
• Detailed images of anatomical structure
• 3D renderings for enhanced diagnosis
• Reveals size, shape & location
• Does not show disease prior to or without structural changes
Positron emission tomography (PET).
• Detects metabolic activity
• Identifies disease process before structural changes become
apparent
• Does not show anatomy or location
Pueblo’s first PET/CT scanner: The
best of both worlds.
• Combined power of CT & PET
• Maximized diagnostic capability
• One exam instead of two – faster & more precisely
fused
The highest sensitivity, specificity &
accuracy in cancer imaging today.
• Detects cancer in its earliest stages
• Pinpoints cancer’s exact location
• Stages cancer more accurately
• Evaluates treatment efficacy earlier
• Offers improved planning for radiotherapy or radiosurgery
• Prevents unnecessary biopsy
An important tool for evaluating & treating
heart disease.
• Measures viability of myocardial cells for certain types
of treatment
• Determines benefit of revascularization for patients with
CAD & left ventricular dysfunction
• Pinpoints compromised myocardial blood flow
• Assists follow-up of cardiotransplant
Making a difference for patients with Alzheimer’s.
• Detects & confirms Alzheimer’s
• Distinguishes Alzheimer’s from other causes of cognitive
decline
• Can slow loss of function by helping patients get treatment
early
