DOPA PET CT Scan

Basic Introduction:

A DOPA PET CT Scan is an advanced nuclear medicine imaging test that uses a special tracer (18F-DOPA) to evaluate dopaminergic activity in the brain and to detect neuroendocrine tumors. It combines PET (Positron Emission Tomography) with CT (Computed Tomography) for both functional and anatomical information.

Why is it done?

  • Evaluation of Parkinson’s disease and related movement disorders
  • Detection of neuroendocrine tumors (e.g., pheochromocytoma, paraganglioma, neuroblastoma)
  • Assessment of dopamine metabolism in neurological conditions

Duration:

Approximately 3–5 hours including preparation and scanning.

Test Preparations:

Preparation:

  • Fasting : Required for 4–6 hours before the scan.
  • Report : Recent Creatinine blood test reports (not older than 15 days) required.
  • Pregnant and breastfeeding women should inform the doctor.
