What is a Pet Scanner?
[Pet Scanner] incorporates cutting-edge technological innovations in medicine, bioinformatics, electrical engineering, and other sciences. Using the theoretical basis of quantum medicine, it applies advanced electronic equipment to collect the weak magnetic fields of animal cells for scientific analysis, thereby analyzing and permanently preserving the health status and main problems of the examined animal, and providing standardized prevention recommendations.
The [Pet scanner] is a personalized guide for health consultation for the advancement of the entire animal body and health science, and its advantages include comprehensiveness, non-invasiveness, practicality, simplicity, speed, economy, easy promotion, etc. With the depth and development of scientific research, it will contribute more to animal health, with broad development and application prospects.
Pet Scanner uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) relaxometry, also known as quantitative magnetic resonance (QMR) technology, which directly measures total body fat, lean mass, free water, and total body water. Pet Scanner™ measurements are the most accurate and precise body composition analysis (BCA) method available today, validated against chemical analysis in numerous published studies. Pet Scanner results also correlate highly with results obtained using the DXA method, but Pet Scanner has important advantages over other existing BCA methods.
Key advantages of Pet Scanner:
- Live subjects, no anesthesia required:
- This reduces the impact of anesthesia on the test subject.
- No radiation or toxicity issues:
- Infants, children, and pregnant women can use this technology with complete safety. Regular and repeated measurements over time have no side effects.
- Fast and simple:
- A single Pet Scanner measurement typically takes 0.5-3.2 minutes, depending on the option.
- Fat and lean mass can be measured independently:
- Unlike DXA, which measures the ratio of fat to lean mass.
- Affordable, convenient, simple:
PET scanner analyzers are much less expensive than traditional MRI, completely silent, and do not require advanced training to use.
The PET scanner is the only technology on the market today that allows BCA to be performed in such a short time, with such high accuracy, without sedating or tranquilizing the subjects, so that the subjects are completely comfortable during the measurement and preparation for the measurement, and the radiation does not pose a health problem.
It is therefore possible to monitor changes in fat content over time, with repeated measurements at regular intervals—hourly if necessary—and throughout the duration of treatment. This allows for accurate monitoring of obesity and detection of minimal changes in body composition due to treatment, natural changes, diet, medication, and other forms of intervention.
