Nuclear Diagnostic Imaging
Nuclear Diagnostic Imaging
Nuclear diagnostic imaging uses small amounts of radioactive tracers to detect radiation in the body, helping doctors diagnose various conditions. The tracers accumulate in specific organs or tissues, and special cameras capture images based on the emitted radiation. These digital images provide insight into how organs and tissues function, aiding in accurate diagnosis. At Revere Health, we offer this advanced imaging technique to evaluate conditions such as heart disease, cancer, bone disorders, and thyroid issues.
How It Works
Tracers: Radioactive material is introduced into the body, targeting specific organs or tissues.
Imaging: Specialized cameras capture radiation emissions to create digital images.
Diagnosis: Physicians use these images to diagnose and monitor various health conditions.
Common Applications
Heart Disease: Assesses blood flow and heart function.
Cancer: Detects tumors and monitors treatment.
Bone Scans: Identifies fractures or bone diseases.
Thyroid Scans: Evaluates thyroid function.
Benefits
Functional Insights: Shows how organs and tissues are functioning.
Early Detection: Helps identify diseases early, before structural changes occur.
Non-Invasive: Safe and minimally invasive with low radiation exposure.
