New England PET Imaging System

New England PET Imaging System (“NEPET”) is a leading provider of PET-CT imaging services in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. NEPET operates fixed PET-CT services on the grounds of the Holy Family Hospital in Methuen, Mass., and in the Cancer Center at Lowell General Hospital, Lowell, Mass., and provides mobile PET-CT services at Merrimack Valley Hospital, Haverhill, Mass., Anna Jaques Hospital, Newburyport, Mass., and the Elliot Hospital, Manchester, New Hampshire.

PET is a highly accurate, non-invasive imaging technique for studying metabolism and biochemistry in various organs and organ systems within the body. PET provides whole body images critical to the detection, evaluation, and management of cancer, as well as focused images of the brain and cardiac tissue. All of NEPET’s sites now operate PET-CT, which combines the functional imaging capabilities of PET with the structural, anatomical detail of CT. PET is approved by Medicare and many other payors for virtually all forms of cancer.
