This highly effective imaging tool is used to diagnose cardiac disease with higher accuracy and lower radiation exposure than traditional stress testing. PET imaging provides diagnostic accuracy, excellent quality, and the ability to detect disease before symptoms are present. This non invasive test is the gold standard in cardiac perfusion imaging.
