What is a FAPI PET/CT Scan?
Uses Of FAPI PET/CT Scan
- Cancer Detection: FAPI PET/CT scans are highly sensitive in detecting various types of cancers, including solid tumors such as pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, and others.
- Cancer Staging: FAPI PET/CT aids in accurately staging cancers by assessing the extent of disease spread beyond the primary tumor site, including lymph node involvement and distant metastases
- Treatment Response Assessment : FAPI PET/CT helps evaluate the response to cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted therapy, by assessing changes in tumor size and metabolic activity
- Treatment Planning : FAPI PET/CT guides treatment planning for cancer patients by providing precise information about tumor location, extent, and response to therapy
- Personalized Medicine : FAPI PET/CT facilitates personalized medicine approaches by identifying suitable treatment options based on individual tumor characteristics
- High Sensitivity and Specificity : FAPI PET/CT scans offer high sensitivity and specificity in detecting cancerous lesions, even at low tumor burdens
What to Expect During a FAPI PET/CT Scan
- A small amount of radioactive FAPI tracer will be injected into your vein.
- You will rest comfortably for a while to allow the tracer to circulate and bind to FAP
- Both the PET and CT scans will be performed in a single session, usually taking 30 60 minutes
- The procedure is generally painless, although some patients may experience slight anxiety in confined spaces
