Pet scan is not a big deal, I have had a few, they tend to be longer, and as I recall a contrast dye or something similar is used. Your doctor should be able to give you some information based on the location of the suspected cancer. A usually simple biopsy should also confirm the type of cancer. While I have NO direct experience, I understand Moffit is supposed to be good in this area.
I should have added there are a few locations in or very close to TV that can do the Pet Scan, Lake Medical Imaging is one of them as i recall.
