Quality Nuclear Medicine and PET/ CT scans and Nuclear Therapy in India at a resonable cost is a far flung dream for the sick., With mounting expense for Medical diagnosis and treatment, it is really impossible to meet the expenditure especially where health insurance is still at its infancy.
Normally the charge for each Nuclear or PET scan is standarised to "C" rate or concessional rate charged by Christian Medical college, Vellore.( A highly commendable, Charity orientated organsiation) The emphasis is do scans for patients at a lesser cost than the "C" rate.
