About this hospitalWhat the center says
From the center's own pages, in English. Each statement links to its source.
The one-day PET package is offered on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, with check-in from 7:30am to 4:00pm.
The center asks health-checkup guests to complete their booking at least three weeks (21 days) in advance.
Guests who want to cancel or change their booking are asked to notify the center at least one week (7 days) in advance.
Payment is due on the day of the checkup, payable by credit card (VISA, MasterCard) or cash; add-on item fees are charged separately.
After completing the checkup, guests can look up their report online after two weeks (14 days).
The center provides an online portal where guests can look up their checkup report.
CTA, MRI and PET scans already include an image disc; for other exams, the center charges an extra (unspecified) fee for the image disc.
Checkup results are known the same day, and a senior internal-medicine physician gives a one-on-one comprehensive interpretation, report explanation, consultation and health-lifestyle advice.
The center provides a complete, detailed written report in Chinese along with health-education information.
If a checkup result is abnormal, the center arranges a further consultation with a specialist for the patient and proactively contacts the patient about their health.

General preparation notes for 5 tests in this package

Usually needs at least 8 hours without food or drink except water beforehand.
Mention when booking: If you take insulin or other diabetes medicine, ask the prescribing doctor how to manage it while fasting, and mention it to the center.
Guaiac-based kits usually ask you to avoid red meat, NSAIDs and more than 250mg of vitamin C for a few days beforehand; FIT kits usually need no diet change.
Mention when booking: Tell the center which kit you were given, and ask the prescribing doctor before stopping aspirin taken for the heart.
Usually asks for no smoking for 24 hours, no heavy meals for at least 2 hours, and no alcohol for at least 4 hours beforehand; wear loose clothing.
Mention when booking: Mention a recent heart attack, stroke or surgery, a chest infection, heart problems or uncontrolled blood pressure; ask whether to bring or hold your usual inhaler.
Usually needs no fasting; you remove jewelry, metal objects and sometimes clothing above the waist for a hospital gown.
Mention when booking: Tell the center if you are, or might be, pregnant.
Usually needs several hours without food and only water to drink beforehand, then 30 to 60 minutes resting quietly after the tracer injection. Leave jewelry, hairpins and other metal at home.
