What is a parathyroid scan?

A parathyroid scan is a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a special type of nuclear medicine to assess the function and health of the parathyroid glands. These glands play a crucial role in regulating calcium levels in the body. The scan helps identify conditions like hyperparathyroidism or the presence of tumors affecting these glands.

Why would my pet need a parathyroid scan?

If your pet is experiencing symptoms such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, lethargy, or unexplained weight loss, a parathyroid scan may be necessary to evaluate the function of their parathyroid glands. This scan helps veterinarians make informed decisions about the best course of treatment.

What does the procedure involve?

During a parathyroid scan, your pet will be given a small radioactive tracer, which helps visualize the glands using a special camera. The procedure is quick, generally taking about 30 minutes, and is non-invasive. Your pet may need to fast for a few hours prior to the scan.

Is the parathyroid scan safe for my pet?

Yes, the parathyroid scan is considered safe for pets. The amount of radiation exposure is minimal and comparable to other diagnostic imaging procedures, like X-rays. Our team at Chandigarh PET CT Scan takes every precaution to ensure the safety and comfort of your pet during the procedure.

How do I prepare my pet for the scan?

Preparing your pet for a parathyroid scan typically involves fasting for a period before the procedure. Your veterinarian will provide specific instructions regarding dietary restrictions and any medications your pet may need to avoid beforehand. It's important to follow these guidelines to ensure accurate results.
