Pet Scan Payam – The First Private Pet Scan Center in Iran

Because your life is precious.

Introducing Payam Pet Scan Complex, the first private pet scan center in Iran.

What is Pet Scan?

Basics of PET Scanning

By showing and measuring the metabolic activity of tissue cells, PET strain is able to provide physicians with more accurate information about malignant diseases, brain and heart diseases, and help him make more accurate decisions about the disease.

The most important applications of PET-CT in malignant diseases are ischemic heart disease and brain diseases. PET-CT is most commonly used in lung, colon and rectum cancers (colon and end), lymphoma, breast, melanoma, esophagus, head and neck tumors, thyroid, ovary, cervix and testis.

Another important application of PET-CT in heart disease is that it can accurately determine the blood supply status of the heart wall, the viability of the heart muscle and its function. In brain diseases, it is also used in cases of memory disorders and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as in accurate determination of seizure center for diagnosis and guidance of surgeon (in case of need for surgical intervention in cases of refractory seizures).

How does the PET device work?

PET is an advanced imaging device that has major differences with other current imaging methods. To perform PET scion, it is necessary to inject a small amount of a radiopharmaceutical, mainly simple sugar marked with a radioactive substance, into the patient’s body.

This drug is distributed in the patient’s body and each tissue of the body harvests it according to its metabolic activity. Tissues with high metabolism, including malignant cells and inflammatory tissues, strongly absorb this substance, while in damaged and destroyed tissues, including in heart strokes and brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, radioactic glucose harvesting decreases.

PET device is able to record the distribution of the drug in the patient’s body by recording radioactic radiation. Existing imaging methods such as CT scion are mainly based on the study of anatomical properties of lesions such as enlargement, abnormal deformity of tissues and exact location of involvement, while PET scavenging examines the metabolic and functional characteristics of lesions. For this reason, PET suction is able to diagnose diseases in much more severe stages before their anatomical changes occur in CT scion by showing their metabolic and functional changes. In addition, when the aim of the study is to investigate the response to treatment, pet device is able to respond or not respond to treatment much earlier than CT sken or MRI.

PET strain is able to provide information to the physician through the study of the metabolic rate and metabolism of tissues, which is not possible through other imaging methods. Pet suction is able to detect diseases in much more extreme stages before their anatomical changes occur in CT accent by showing their metabolic and functional changes. Therefore, the disease is discovered in very early stages and the likelihood of responding to treatment is greatly increased. In addition, when the aim of the study is to investigate the response to treatment, pet device is able to respond much earlier than CTcarn or MRI to show or not to respond to treatment.

What are pet scan applications?

PET-CT is most commonly used in lung, colon and rectal cancers, lymphoma, breast, melanoma, esophagus, head and neck tumors, thyroid, ovary, cervix and testis. The most important advantages of PET-CT imaging in malignant diseases include:

  • Early diagnosis
  • Reduce the need for invasive measures to determine the extent of the disease
  • Possibility of closer examination of the extent of the disease due to high resolution and sensitivity
  • It is possible to check the extent of the disease more easily due to the scan of the whole body in one step
  • Guide to choosing the preferred treatment, evaluating the response to treatment and its effectiveness
  • Early diagnosis of recurrence and differentiation of recurrence from tissue changes caused by surgical treatments or radiotherapy
  • Determining the prognosis of the disease in the early stages before treatment
  • Possibility of accurate determination of the location of the lesion for biopsy and treatment measures such as surgery and radiotherapy
  • It may be able to play a role in reducing the overall cost of treatment.

Another important application of PET-CT in heart disease is that it can accurately determine the blood supply status of the heart wall, the viability of the heart muscle and its function. In brain diseases, it is also used in cases of memory disorders and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as in accurate determination of seizure center for diagnosis and guidance of surgeon (in case of need for surgical intervention in cases of refractory seizures).

Pet Center Message Scan

What are the features of Pet Scan Message Center?

Payam Pet Scan is located in Mehrshahr, Alborz province, with an area of 2000 square meters in Payam Special Economic Zone. This center has been opened as the first private pet scan imaging center in 2016 and is serving the noble people of the country with a beautiful and relaxing environment, advanced equipment and the world. The following are some of the features of the pet scan message collection.

  • Quiet and beautiful environment, designed as pet scan center

Payam Pet Scan Center is designed exclusively as a medical imaging center so that patients can receive the services they need when they visit this center in complete comfort and relaxation. A large and luxurious lobby, a relaxed and comfortable environment ensures patients will have an enjoyable medical experience.

So far, in conventional procedural imaging centers, patients have all been through difficult days together and in an anxious environment waiting for imaging. But in the message pet scan center, each patient has a dedicated waiting room that is equipped with an electronic patient’s bed, multimedia system, air conditioning, dedicated restroom, and medical facilities such as blood pressure meter, oxygen maker, etc. Available in each room.

  • Modern and advanced PET/CT device

The main system required in a pet scan center is pet/CT scanner. This device is responsible for imaging the patient by pet method. For this reason, a modern and advanced imaging system has been installed in Message Scan which, in addition to high accuracy and quality, has helped patients’ well-being by relatively reducing the imaging time.

  • Accelerator & Radiopharmaceptical Manufacturing Laboratory

As described earlier, for pet imaging, it is necessary to inject a small batcher of radioactive substance into the patient. Currently, the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran provides these radiopharmaceves to centers that are subject to restrictions. In the message pet scan center, for the greater convenience of patients and to prevent disruption and irregularities in the imaging process, cyclotron (accelerator) and laboratory (hotlab) preparation of radioactive drugs has been launched.

  • New pet mammography technology, for the first time in Iran and the Middle East

Pet Mammography is a new method for preparing images of breasts. In this method, such as pet scan, glucose consumption in different tissues is shown as an image. Thus, malignant breast diseases are diagnosed much earlier. Also, although in conventional mammography, it is often not possible to detect simple cysts from malignant masses, in mammography this means cleaning benign cysts of breast cancer tumors is easy.

  • Nuclear Medicine Imaging Systems

In addition to all the advanced devices described, the SPECT device used for nuclear medicine imaging has also been installed at the Message Pet Scan Center. Although there are many nuclear medicine centers throughout the country, however, for the welfare of patients and preventing waste of time and money, the SPECT system of Payam Pet Scan Center, which is a very advanced and new type of this device, is ready to serve the respected patients.
