La Medicina Nuclear es una modalidad dentro de las imágenes de diagnóstico, que analiza la fisiología del cuerpo en lugar de la anatomía. Los servicios del Departamento de Medicina Nuclear del Memorial incluyen, entre otros, estudios cardíacos, estudios óseos, estudios de la vesícula biliar y estudios de infecciones.
Las imágenes se obtienen utilizando cantidades muy pequeñas de materiales radiactivos, comparables a la radiación con una radiografía de diagnóstico, administrados por vía oral, intravenosa o debajo de la piel. El radionúclido viajará a través del torrente sanguíneo hasta el órgano objetivo. Luego, se escanea el órgano en busca de estructuras anatómicas, función y enfermedad. Los procedimientos de medicina nuclear pueden usarse para diagnosticar hipertiroidismo (enfermedad de Grave), estrés cardíaco, problemas ortopédicos, función anormal o bloqueos de la vesícula biliar o el hígado, así como para evaluaciones metabólicas del cerebro y la estadificación de pacientes oncológicos.

Speak-Up About Your Medications
Medication safety is a team effort. You, your doctor, pharmacist, and other caregivers all have a role in making sure you get the right medication, take the correct dosage, and avoid bad reactions. It’s important to know what questions to ask about a new medication and to Speak Up if something doesn’t sound right.
