Radiology - Nuclear Medicine (N.M.) scan

Nuclear Medicine scan usually involves a small injection of a special radioactive tracer followed by a series of images taken using a special scanner. The scanner usually moves around while you lie still on a special bench. Nuclear Medicine scans provide information on various organs, including heart, brain, bones, lungs, thyroid, kidneys, blood system, stomach and bowel. Usually information is obtained about how the organs are functioning, helping your doctor decide on the best treatment.

Tomorrow I go in for nuclear testing for my abdominal area 😳 I’m not liking the idea of this at all 😢
