How long does it take to do a scan of the lungs?

A lung scan, such as a chest X-ray or CT scan, typically takes about 10 to 30 minutes. The actual scanning process is usually quick, often just a few seconds, but additional time may be needed for patient preparation and positioning. If a more detailed evaluation is required, such as a PET scan, it may take longer.


How long does it take for a patient to get results from a pet scan?

It depends on what is being scanned and how fast the machine is. Machines are like computers (technologywise) a computer from 1995 could still get the work done, but one that is brand new could get it done a lot faster. That being said it also depends on the type of exam. If there is a biopsy involved it could take a few hours. But for a regular run of the mill scan you would be on and off the table in about 10 minutes. (ask for a blanket its really cold in those rooms)
