Cancer Fighting Equipment
Texas Cancer Clinic Imaging Center

 In addition to superior medical treatment, the Texas Cancer Clinic houses featurs the most advanced PET/CT unit in South Texas, as well as other state-of-the-art equipment.

Imaging is a vital tool in the treatment of any form of cancer. Early versions of x-ray technique could show a tumor’s location within the human body, whereas today’s imaging and mapping equipment can do so much more. Current technology can identify abnormal cellular activity within an organ or gland long before a tumor forms. These highly detailed images are also used to guide procedures and evaluate treatment results.

The Siemens Biograph PET/CT System provides finer detail, superior image quality, increased throughput and total integration. It is the most sophisticated and powerful PET/CT system available today with LSO Crystal Technology, and delivers exceptional image quality in the shortest scanning time possible. At the Texas Cancer Clinic, everything is networked in-house between the imaging and treatment planning computers, so you never have to leave the building.
