Nuclear Medicine

Our nuclear medicine services can help identify medical problems at an earlier stage than other diagnostic tests. This branch of medical imaging uses radionuclides and relies on the process of radioactive use in identifying and treating disease. We provide a variety of accurate imaging procedures that suit the patient’s unique needs.

Thyroid

Thyroid scan using Tc99m Pertechnetate

Thyroid structure, size and function

Radioactive iodine 131 uptake (RAIU)

Thyroid function
Calculation of I-131 therapy dose

Iodine 131 Whole Body Scan

Thyroid CA evaluation and follow-up

Radioactive iodine 131 therapy (RAI)

For Hypothyroidism
For Cancer

Pulmonary
