What Is an Isotope Scan?

Radionuclide scintigraphy is also called "isotope scanning". One of the diagnostic methods of radioisotopes. It can measure the distribution of radioactive elements in the human body, and is used to detect the shape, location, function, and presence or absence of occupying lesions in human organs. The nuclide scintillation scanning device can automatically move on the organ, set its radioactive intensity point by point, and record the result to form a nuclide scintigram. Recording methods include printing, photoelectric and magnetic tape. In the clinical diagnosis and differential diagnosis of thyroid, liver, brain, kidney, placenta, large blood vessels, stomach , lung , lymph , pancreas and other organ diseases, medical research and other aspects.
