Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

PET imaging is often used in conjunction with CT or MRI imaging to improve diagnostic accuracy. CT provides anatomical details while PET provides metabolic and functional information. MRI also provides anatomical details and can offer higher resolution than CT, but is less commonly used due to the higher cost and longer acquisition times. SPECT and scintigraphy are both nuclear medicine imaging techniques that use radioactive isotopes, but they are not typically used in conjunction with PET imaging. IR (infrared) imaging is not used in conjunction with PET imaging.
