For many patients, PET-CT examination (tumor whole-body tomography examination) is indispensable, but the expensive examination cost is really unbearable. The good news is that according to the provisions of the 2024 No. 1 document, some medical services in the city's public medical institutions** have changed. From March 1, the cost of PET-CT examination will be partially reduced.
Taking the central hospital as an example, the PET-CT whole body examination fee was adjusted from the original 5,500 yuan to 3,944 yuan, and the single site examination fee was adjusted from the original 3,100 yuan to 2,320 yuan.
In other words, patients now have a 1 4 less cost for PET-CT full-body examination, and the financial burden is greatly reduced.
It is reported that PET-CT is a kind of positron emission tomography, which is the fusion of PET and CT. For the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant tumors, the search for primary lesions and metastatic cancers, the evaluation of tumor efficacy, the identification of tumors** and necrosis, and the positioning of radiotherapy biological targets, it has irreplaceable advantages of other imaging equipment.
