$ADMD More than 20 million Americans benefit each

$ADMD More than 20 million Americans benefit each year from nuclear medicine procedures used to diagnose and treat a wide variety of diseases. The use of radiation in these procedures— with low risks—offers a safe and cost-effective means to provide doctors with information that would otherwise require exploratory surgery, necessitate more costly and invasive procedures or simply be unavailable. The risks of not performing a needed medical exam are usually much greater than the risks of the radiation exposures associated with the exam.

Nuclear medicine can be used to:
determine whether or not organs are functioning normally,
show whether the blood supply to the heart is adequate,
detect cancers at an early stage,
determine the extent of cancer and assess the response of cancer to treatment,
discover whether the heart can pump blood adequately,
identify abnormal brain lesions without exploratory surgery,
detect whether the brain is receiving an adequate blood supply and if brain cells are functioning or not,
check whether or not kidneys are functioning normally and whether the stomach is emptying properly,
ascertain lung function and bone density and
locate a bone fracture before it can be seen on an X-ray.
