What is Nuclear Medicine?
How Nuclear Medicine is used for Cancer Diagnosis?
Nuclear medicine imaging tests are non-invasive and painless procedures that are used to create images of the inside of the body. These images can help identify any abnormal cells or growths and make a diagnosis. Some common nuclear medicine tests for cancer diagnosis include:
- Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans
- Gallium scans
- Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) scans
