Here are some URL's to take you on a virtual tour of the PET scanning
facilities at University of British Columbia.

http://www.physics.ubc.ca/~pet/
http://www.physics.ubc.ca/~pet/body3.html
http://www.triumf.ca/welcome/petscan.html
http://www.triumf.ca/pethome/pethome.htm
http://www.triumf.ca/pethome/links.htm

The second link (this one)
http://www.physics.ubc.ca/~pet/body3.html
describes all the imaging processes (X Ray; CT; MRI; SPECT; and PET
and their different uses).

I've been PET scanned at UBC as have others on this List.

Dr. Meyer may be able to add a little to what you will find on these
web sites.

All the best ............. murray
