KCE survey on PET

  1. How many PET scanners are currently operational in your country (total number + number per million population)?
     
  2. How many more PET scanners are planned for the future, within which time frame are these meant to become installed?
     
  3. Who were the most important stakeholders in the demand for more PET scanners (patients, oncologists, hospitals,...)? 
     
  4. How was the decision on the number of PET scanners needed made (which information was taken into account; which aspects were considered to be important for the number of PET scanners needed in your country). 
     
  5. Facultative: Has there ever been a discussion in closing down existing PET scanners in your country and how was it handled?
     
  6. Facultative: How is the provision of the PET-tracers organised? How many cyclotrons are there in your country? Are they located in the close neighbourhood of the PET-scanner or does one cyclotron supply multiple PET scanners?
