Preparing for your nuclear medicine

- Tell the clinic if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before your appointment.
Nuclear Medicinecost, bulk billing & Medicare
Doctor-referred nuclear medicine scans (such as bone scans and thyroid scans) are generally Medicare-eligible, and many providers bulk bill them. Confirm the expected cost with the clinic when you book.
A referral from your GP or specialist is required. Nuclear medicine is offered at a smaller number of specialised departments and clinics, so availability varies by area.

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.
