  schema:description "A PET-CT scan uses a sugar-like tracer, so food, sugar, exercise and cold can all blur the pictures. Do not eat for at least 4 hours before (plain water is fine and helps), take your usual medicines, avoid hard exercise the day before, and keep warm. If you have diabetes, the unit will give you a plan for your tablets or insulin and will check your blood sugar when you arrive."@en ;
