PET scans can see inside the brain
Silicone generally does not show up on a PET scan because it is not metabolically active and does not have a significant impact on the body's glucose metabolism, which the scan detects. PET scans are primarily used to identify areas of increased metabolic activity, often related to cancer or inflammation. However, silicone implants might be visible on other imaging modalities, such as MRI or CT scans, due to their distinct density and structure.
it helped to locating a safe spot to land on the dusty moon!
The devil is in the details. CT scans can and do save lives. CT scans can and do cause cancer. The appropriate use of the CT scan is safe and effective in modern healthcare. The inappropriate use of CT scans is a major public health concern.
My wife had ct scan 3 months ago and now her doctor has asked for another. Is it safe for her to have another so soon
Many sources agree that pet scans are effective in finding cancer. These scans are said to help determine the location of tumors and whether or not they have spread.

PET scans are used most often to find tumors and cancer. They're also used to look at brain activity and also used in heart disease diagnosis.
Yes and no. PET scans can detect the deterioration of brain cells such as in Alzheimer's Disease, etc. PET scans can also show that the 2 chemicals in the brain are not balanced and therefore can cause a person to become depressed (many different forms of depression) but it is up to a psychiatrist to determine what type of depression the person has.

PET scans or fMRI scans can indicate which portions of the brain are active at given points in time.
