PET

PET stands for Positron Emission Tomography. It is a way to reveal comparative activity of tissue. Radioactive labeled glucose which emits positron is injected to the patient body. The radiation given off is recorded by sensor and analyzed via computer. The most active part of tissue shows red and green colors.
