Whole-Body PET/CT Scan

Wyoming rates for HCPCS 78816

A scan combining PET, which shows how active tissue is after an injection of a radioactive sugar tracer, with a CT taken in the same session to show exactly where that activity is. This version covers the whole body from head to feet, used when disease could involve areas outside the trunk such as the limbs or the scalp. More of the body is imaged, so the scan takes longer than one limited to the trunk.
