Today, PET/CT is the fastest growing diagnostic imaging modality, and for good reason. PET/CT scans combine two different types of imaging capabilities in a single procedure using one machine. Unlike other imaging modalities such as MRI and CT, PET/CT scans show metabolic changes at the cellular level in an organ or tissue.

Hanneman said that by switching scanners off or to lower power states when not in use, overall greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced by up to 33% for MRI and between 40% and 80% for CT. Optimizing scanner scheduling can also reduce idle time and reduce the average greenhouse gas emissions per exam for MRI and CT units.
