    So do they always give some type of “sugar in IV”? Exactly what is in IV. If not diabetic do you still have some product with sugar in it?

    • @cassieoz1702
      @cassieoz1702 Год назад

      They always ask about diabetes and meds, and usually check your blood glucose level before they start. It's radioactive labelled glucose, very small dose and no other way to do it. It's the glucose that's taken up by cancer cells

    Hi my question is regarding the cardiac pet scan stress test. How long does that one take, meaning how long do I have to lie still on the table and will my arms and head be out? Will I be able to be sedated? Is it possible to have the test broken up into 2 seperate parts under the scanner so that I can move and get a break in between sections? Thank you!!!
