About Us
Bangkok Hospital provides advanced diagnostic imaging with the PET/CT scan, combining Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT) technologies. This cutting-edge diagnostic tool delivers highly accurate imaging by combining metabolic and anatomical data, enabling doctors to detect abnormalities, monitor treatment progress, and plan effective medical or surgical interventions.
The PET/CT scan is especially effective for cancer diagnosis, as it detects abnormal cellular activity and determines the stage of cancer. It also plays a vital role in evaluating heart disease, identifying neurological disorders, and guiding treatment strategies.
Bangkok Hospital’s PET/CT scan services are supported by a team of experienced radiologists, nuclear medicine specialists, and technicians. Using the latest imaging protocols, the center ensures precise results and timely reporting in a comfortable and patient-friendly environment. This comprehensive approach to diagnostics helps enhance early detection, improve treatment outcomes, and elevate the overall standard of care.
Our services include:
Our in-house cyclotron is capable of producing PET radiopharmaceuticals such as F-18 FDG, F-18 NaF, F-18 FD0PA and C-11 PiB.
Oncology-imaging services using CT scan and ultrasound by expert oncology radiologists.
PET/CT with floe technology
Bangkok Hospital employs the world’s first PET/CT Flow technology, a revolutionary system that eliminates the traditional stop-and-go imaging process. This advanced system uses a continuous motion of the patient table, ensuring faster, smoother, and more convenient scanning for patients. By reducing time consumption and enhancing patient comfort, PET/CT Flow redefines diagnostic precision and efficiency.
Applications of PET/CT Scanning
PET/CT scans at Bangkok Hospital utilize various radiopharmaceuticals tailored to specific diagnostic needs:
F-18 FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose): Used in over 90% of cases, this radiopharmaceutical detects metabolic activity in cancer cells and monitors treatment effectiveness.
F-18 FDOPA: Particularly effective for certain cancers and brain disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders.
C-11 PiB (Pittsburgh Compound B): Used to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease by identifying amyloid plaques in the brain.
With a team of highly skilled radiologists and nuclear medicine specialists, Bangkok Hospital ensures accurate and timely diagnoses. The integration of PET/CT Flow technology provides an unparalleled patient experience while maintaining the highest international standards of care.
