How FAPI PET/CT Scans Revolutionize Cancer Detection and Staging?
Cancer detection and accurate staging are pivotal in developing an effective treatment plan. Traditional imaging techniques, while useful, often face limitations in identifying the early and nuanced markers of cancer. However, Fibroblast Activation Protein Inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT scans have emerged as a game-changer in oncology, enabling high precision in identifying cancerous tissues and accurately determining […]
FAPI PET-CT Scans: Unveiling Cancer Imaging’s Future
Introduction Fibroblast activation protein (FAP) is a protein that is overexpressed in the tumour microenvironment of various types of cancers, including breast, lung, pancreatic, colorectal, and more. What does a FAPI PET/CT scan do? PET/CT technology combines the functional information from positron emission tomography (PET), which detects the distribution of the radioactive tracer, with the […]
