PET/CT
Advanced PET/CT Imaging for Early Detection & Accurate Diagnosis
At
Daviess Community Hospital, we provide
cutting-edge Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/CT scans, an advanced imaging technology that
detects diseases at their earliest stages. PET/CT scans help diagnose
cancer, neurological disorders, and heart disease by showing how organs and tissues function in real time. With our
high-resolution imaging, doctors can detect abnormalities early, monitor treatment effectiveness,
and develop
personalized care plans.
