Nuclear medicine is a branch of medicine that uses small amounts of radioactive isotopes to aid in the diagnosis, determination of severity, or treatment of various diseases, including specific types of cancers, heart diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine disorders, neurological disorders, and other abnormalities in the body. As nuclear medicine diagnostic methods can help visualize molecular activity in the body, they often provide the potential for disease detection in its early stages, often before symptoms occur or before abnormalities are detected by other diagnostic tests, and can even aid in disease identification. Higher amounts of radioactive isotopes can also be used for the treatment of specific types of diseases.
Nuclear medicine diagnostic scans provide unique information, including details of body anatomy and function, and have high sensitivity and specificity for the heart, blood vessels, and oncology.
Nuclear medicine diagnostic methods are non-invasive medical tests that have been used for over 50 years. Depending on the type of nuclear medicine examination, a radiotracer is injected, inhaled, or swallowed and accumulates in an organ or area of the body under examination. The radioactive isotopes are then emitted from the organ or cell of interest to an external detector, often called a nuclear medicine camera.
