Autist here :
The PET-scanner is only a detector.
A dose of radioactive Fluor-18 is injected and works like a glucose molecule.
Cancerous cells eat as much glucose as an super-active muscle.
That's why the F18-glucose tends to accumulate more in fucked-up cells... Where it decays in gamma-ray detectable by the PET-scanner.
