Computed Tomography (CT) scans provide detailed, cross-sectional images of the body that help physicians detect tumors, evaluate their size and location, guide biopsies, and monitor treatment response.

CT imaging is a cornerstone of cancer diagnosis and treatment planning.

PET/CT Imaging at NYOH

Positron Emission Tomography (PET), often combined with CT (PET/CT), provides information on how tissues and organs function at the cellular level. PET imaging helps detect cancer earlier, assess tumor activity, and guide staging and treatment decisions.

NYOH offers the region’s most advanced PET/CT technology, including fixed and mobile units.
