A CT scan creates images using X rays to provide details about bony structures precisely and some detail of soft tissues. Whereas PET scan provides imaging of biological processes within the body. It is more useful when it comes to providing a good detail of the functioning of body parts. PET Scan is used effectively in oncology (study and treatment of cancer and tumours), neurology, cardiology, Pharmacology and Muscular-Skeletal Imaging and more.
Yes, PET scans are highly safe. We use low-dose radiation protocols (ALARA) and specialized tracers that leave the body naturally within a few hours. However, it is not recommended for pregnant women. For safety consultations, feel free to contact us at 8699572364.

FDG PET-CT (Whole Body) – The gold standard for cancer staging. We use low-dose FDG protocols to scan from head to toe, detecting metastasis in lungs, bones, or lymph nodes with 50% less radiation exposure.
Ga-68 PSMA PET Scan – We use the advanced Ga-68 PSMA tracer to detect prostate cancer recurrence at the earliest stage. Unlike standard scans, our digital PET-CT can identify lesions as small as 2mm, ensuring accurate staging for prostate treatment.
Ga-68 DOTA Scan – Our facility is one of the few in the Tricity offering specialized Ga-68 DOTA scans for Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs). This high-precision scan helps in planning Lutetium therapy and surgery.
Cardiac Viability PET – “Is the heart muscle ‘dead’ or just ‘sleeping’?”
Before undergoing high-risk Bypass Surgery (CABG) or Angioplasty, it is critical to confirm if the damaged heart muscle is actually alive. Standard Echo or Thallium scans often mistake weak muscle for dead scar tissue.
Why Choose Our Digital Cardiac PET?
We use the Gold Standard FDG-PET protocol to detect “Hibernating Myocardium”—heart tissue that is alive but weak due to low blood flow.
Expert Analysis: Cardiac PET requires precise interpretation. Your report is verified by Dr. KDS Rana, ensuring your Cardiologist gets the exact data needed for surgical planning.
Avoid Unnecessary Surgery: If the tissue is dead, surgery won’t help. Our scan confirms if the heart will recover function after surgery.
Specialized Protocol: We follow strict Glucose Loading Protocols ensuring the highest accuracy for diabetic and non-diabetic patients.

Patients visiting us from PGI or private hospitals in Mohali often ask: “My doctor prescribed a PET Scan. Why can’t I just get an MRI? It’s cheaper.”
It is crucial to understand that these scans look at your body in completely different ways. While a CT scan looks at anatomy (structure), a PET scan looks at biology (activity).
Here is the simple breakdown to help you understand your prescription.
| Feature | CT Scan | MRI | PET-CT Scan |
| What it sees | Bones, Organs, Bleeding, Tumors (Size/Shape). | Soft Tissues, Nerves, Ligaments, Brain, Spinal Cord. | Cellular Activity, Cancer Spread, Infection, Metabolic Changes. |
| Technology | X-Rays (Radiation). | Magnetic Fields (No Radiation). | Radioactive Tracer (FDG) + CT. |
| Time Taken | 10-15 Minutes. | 30-90 Minutes. | 2-4 Hours (Includes waiting time). |
| Best For | Trauma, Chest infections, fractures, kidney stones. | Disc slips, stroke, joint pain, brain tumors. | Cancer Staging, checking if Chemo is working. |
| Avg. Cost in Chandigarh | ₹2,000 – ₹6,000 | ₹6,000 – ₹12,000 | ₹12,999 (At MRI Chandigarh) |
The Fast & Structural Scan
Think of a CT Scan as a high-speed, 3D X-ray. It takes hundreds of pictures of your body in seconds and stitches them together.
When is it used? Doctors in Chandigarh usually prescribe this for emergencies (accidents), checking for lung infections (like in COVID), or diagnosing kidney stones.
Our Technology: At MRI Chandigarh, we use a 128-Slice CT Scanner. Most centers in Sector 11 or Sector 35 use older 16-slice or 64-slice machines.
Why it matters: A 128-slice scanner captures images faster (less radiation) and in higher detail, allowing us to see blocks in heart vessels (CT Coronary Angio) or tiny lung nodules.
The “Detail Oriented” Scan
An MRI does not use radiation. Instead, it uses a powerful magnet to align the water molecules in your body. It provides the most detailed images of soft tissues that bones often hide.
When is it used? If you have back pain (slipped disc), knee ligament tears (ACL), or headaches (migraine/brain issues), an MRI is the gold standard.
The “MRI” Advantage: Many labs in the Tricity use 1.5 Tesla machines. We use 3 Tesla (3T) MRI technology.
Why it matters: MRI creates a magnetic field twice as strong as standard machines. This means the scan is faster, and the images are crystal clear—crucial for neurosurgery planning at PGI.
The “Cancer Detective”
This is the most advanced scan among the three. A PET scan doesn’t just show that there is a lump (like a CT does); it tells us if the lump is alive (cancerous) or benign (harmless).
Before the scan, we inject a small amount of radioactive glucose (FDG). Since cancer cells are “hungry” and eat more sugar than normal cells, they light up brightly on the scan.
Coming from Mohali? We are located in Sector 35, just a 15-minute drive from Mohali Phase 5 & 7 via the main highway. You can avoid the heavy traffic of PGI and Sector 17.
Coming from Panchkula? Patients from Panchkula and Zirakpur prefer our center because we offer a Free Priority Morning Slot, ensuring you can complete your scan and return home before lunch.
We believe in honest, transparent healthcare. While some hospitals advertise lower rates but add "filming charges" or "registration fees" later, our package is all-inclusive.
I was looking for a PET Scan in Chandigarh for my father’s oncology checkup. While big hospitals were quoting ₹22,000, I got it done here for ₹12,999. The facility is clean, and the staff is very supportive. Highly recommended for affordable cancer imaging
We were tired of the long waiting lines at PGI and private hospitals where you sit for 4-5 hours. At MRI Chandigarh, the experience was completely different. We booked a slot, walked in, and the scan was done in just 15 minutes. My father is elderly and couldn't handle the hospital rush. If you want zero waiting time and a report verified personally by a senior doctor like Dr. KDS Rana, this is the place to go.
As a doctor, I’m very picky about diagnostic quality. I referred my patient here for a Ga-68 PSMA PET Scan. The clarity of the imaging and the detailed clinical findings in the report were excellent. Easily the best PET scan centre in Chandigarh for specialized nuclear medicine.
PGI had a 2-month waiting list for a PET scan. I contacted MRI Chandigarh, and they scheduled the appointment for the next morning. They even provided a free pick-up service from Mohali. Very professional and time-saving service.
My mother is claustrophobic and was terrified of the PET scan. We tried another center in Panchkula before, but the machine was too slow and narrow. MRI Chandigarh has a wide-bore Siemens scanner that is incredibly fast. The whole scan finished before she even realized it. The staff was very kind, and the free pick-and-drop from Mohali was a blessing. Highly recommended for senior citizens.
I researched a lot about PET scans before booking. Many centers in Chandigarh use older analog machines which give blurry images. MRI Chandigarh uses a Digital 128-Slice scanner which lowers radiation dose (important for my young son). Dr. Rana sat with us and explained the report personally, which you never get at big corporate hospitals. Best diagnostic centre in the Tricity.
