A chest X-ray, 1 view, is a quick, painless test that produces images of the structures within your chest, such as your heart, lungs, and blood vessels. It helps in diagnosing conditions like pneumonia, heart problems, or lung cancer. You'll stand in front of a machine that emits X-rays, which pass through your body to create the image.

A nuclear medicine study from skull base to mid-thigh with a CT scan involves using a small amount of radioactive material and CT imaging to examine body tissues and organs. This helps detect any abnormalities by providing detailed images of the body's internal structure.

Fluorodeoxyglucose F-18 FDG is a radioactive drug used in PET scans. It helps doctors see how your tissues and organs are functioning. The drug is given in a specific dose, up to 45 millicuries, depending on your body size and the type of scan.

Nuclear medicine studies of the heart involve two parts: rest and stress. During rest, images are taken of your heart at ease. During stress, images are taken after exercise or medication-induced stress. SPECT is a special imaging technique providing 3D pictures of your heart, helping identify any issues.

A nuclear medicine study with a limited area CT scan is a diagnostic procedure. A small amount of radioactive substance is injected into your body, which helps create detailed images of a specific area. The CT scan further enhances these images, providing clearer, more precise results.

A nuclear medicine study of bone and/or joint whole body involves injecting a small amount of radioactive material into your body. This material travels to your bones and emits energy. A special camera captures this energy, creating images of your bones to help identify any abnormalities.
