About Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine is a specialty branch of medical imaging that involves the use of modalities such as SPECT and PET scans. These technologies help detect and evaluate various disorders in the areas of oncology, cardiology, and neurology. Modalities for nuclear medicine involve the use of a minimal amount of radioisotopes that are either injected, swallowed, or inhaled by an individual. These radioisotopes reach the specific organ targeted by the pharmaceutical compound and emit radiations that can be detected using a scanner or a detector.
