Find cancer cells and confirm diagnoses.PET and MRI imaging does not have any side effects. The combined imaging helps doctors more clearly see the cancer. The cancer cells then “light up.” These images are laid over MRI scans or ultrasound images of the affected areas of your body. Prostate cancer cells often replace healthy prostate tissues, so changes aren’t as visible.ĭuring a PET scan, the tracer binds to prostate cancer cells like a lock fits into a key. Most cancers grow as obvious masses or tumors, so these changes are easy to see.īut prostate cancer grows differently. They use powerful magnets to show images of your organs and tissues. Traditional MRI machines are a valuable cancer detection tool. Your doctor usually shares your results with you within two to three days.The machine finds the tracer and makes an image of that area in your body.You are not likely to feel claustrophobic. Unlike traditional MRI machines, the PET-CT scan machine is a big, open, disc-like tube. You lie down in our PET-CT scan machine.Your radiologist injects you with a low-dose radioactive tracer via an IV (intravenous) line.You undergo PSMA-PET (prostate specific membrane antigen-positron emission tomography) in our modern IU Health Neuroscience Center. More defined imaging lets us improve your prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, increasing the odds of a positive outcome. We are one of only a few academic medical centers giving patients access to this lifesaving technology through clinical trials.
