Alfa scan can provide PSMA in Gallium and Fluorine labeling.<\/p><p>PET\/CT imaging depends on scanning the radioactive compound from the body, that is why it is crucial to give enough time and appropriate dose to patients. In Alfa scan we follow the international guidelines and the highest standard to ensure the best imaging quality.
