Yes, you can generally drive a car after a PET scan, as the procedure itself does not involve sedation or anesthesia. However, if you were given any sedative or feel unwell due to the contrast agent used, it is advisable to wait until you feel completely normal before driving. Always follow any specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
