Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or Computed Tomography (CT) scan is performed as an imaging test using a radioactive substance, which is known as a tracer to encounter any disease or bad blood flow to the heart. It is an important test to rehabilitate patients suffering from ventricular dysfunction because of coronary artery disease. The scan is performed to check if all areas of heart muscles are receiving enough blood. It also gives the information if there is any heart damage, or scar in the heart muscles. As the procedure identifies changes at a cellular level, it usually detects the onset of any disease before it becomes evident on any other imaging tests. The technology provides a pain-free and non-surgical option for detecting any malfunctioning in the body at an early stage.
