PET Scan of a Limited Area

Pennsylvania rates for HCPCS 78811

A PET scan covering one region of the body, such as the chest or the head and neck. A small amount of radioactive tracer is injected and the scanner shows where it collects, highlighting tissue that is unusually active, such as a tumor. Only the region of interest is imaged rather than the whole body.
