Nuclear medicine is a specialized area of radiology used to help diagnose and treat abnormalities early in the progression of a disease. This imaging captures medical information that would otherwise ...

A new, noninvasive nuclear medicine test can be used to determine whether aromatase inhibitor treatment will be effective for specific cancer patients, according to a recent study reported in The ...

You will probably not need to change out of your street clothes. Once in the scanning room, you will lie flat on a table that slides into the scanner. During the procedure, the scanner will come close ...

Nuclear medicine can help diagnose and treat different conditions, including some forms of cancer. In nuclear medicine, doctors put small amounts of radioactive material into your body so they can see ...

Physicians rely on nuclear medicine scans, like SPECT scans, to watch the heart pump, track blood flow and detect diseases hidden deep inside the body. But today's scanners depend on expensive ...

Scientists have created a perovskite-based gamma-ray detector that surpasses traditional nuclear medicine imaging technology. The device delivers sharper, faster, and safer scans at a fraction of the ...

The three-year, ACGME-accredited nuclear medicine residency offers training in diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging, non-imaging procedures and a wide range of nuclear medicine therapeutic procedures.

A pioneer in the diagnostic uses of radiation and the development and testing of radiotracers in the early days of nuclear medicine, Robert N. Beck, professor emeritus in the Department of Radiology ...

Nuclear medicine imaging involves the administration of a radiolabelled chemical called a radiopharmaceutical. This radiopharmaceutical is administered internally, via injection, swallowing or ...
