After your procedure
What do I do after the scan?
You should continue to drink plenty of fluids for the remainder of the day.
After the scan you can eat and drink normally, so please bring something with you to consume on your way home.
How do I get my results?
The scan is usually reviewed within 48 hours and the result will be sent to the doctor who referred you for the PET/CT scan.
The staff at the PET/CT unit cannot issue the results to you.
They are not permitted to do so as the Consultant must review both the scan and any previous scans or information.
