The PET CT-Scan Project
Giving Patients Access to the Scans Their Treatment Depends On
For many Yemeni cancer patients, obtaining advanced diagnostic care is extremely difficult. PET CT scanning is not readily accessible in Yemen, forcing patients who need this service to seek care abroad.
Many patients receiving cancer treatment in Egypt require PET CT scans based on the recommendations of the physicians overseeing their care. These scans play an important role in evaluating cancer, assessing its progression, monitoring response to treatment, and helping doctors determine the appropriate course of care.
