Precautions:

PET-CT itself contains radioactive metabolites, so users are advised to stay away from babies, pregnant women and their families within 20 hours after the examination, because many radioactive substances have been attenuated during the examination, but when users return to the ward or home, the dose of radioactive substances still exists, which needs to be physically excluded from the body, and generally can not be completely attenuated until 20 hours later.

Try to avoid users walking around at will, entering and leaving public places or crowded places. Normal examination and treatment should be carried out in the ward, which has relatively little impact on the surrounding medical staff.
