What happens during a nuclear medicine scan?
You receive a small amount of a radioactive tracer, usually by injection. After a waiting period (sometimes a few hours), a gamma camera takes images showing how the tracer moves through your body, which reveals how organs and bones are functioning.
Is the radioactive tracer safe?
The tracer dose is small and leaves your body within hours to days. Nuclear medicine has been used safely for decades. Tell your clinic if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as special precautions apply.
