Question
What is the appropriate duration for maintaining distance from a child after a PET-CT scan? Can food be consumed during the examination, and is it safe to eat these foods?
Answer
The detailed examination performed during the PET-CT scan does indeed involve radiation, but a single scan does not pose a health risk. In this case, there is no need for special precautions, and it does not affect the safety of food. Even if you come into contact with the child, it will not lead to contamination or adverse reactions in the child, so there is no need to worry. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish you good health!
