Hi-Tech Healing Opportunities: Nuclear Medicine

Nuclear medicine is now commonplace.

As it involves use of radioactive isotopes in very small doses in diagnosing and treatment of diseases, radioactive medicine is injected or administered orally and the distribution in the organ is scanned using a Gamma camera.

Tariffs are low starting from Rs. 4,000 for Thallium rest (SPECT), Rs. 1,800 for lung perfusion and venogram of upper or lower limbs, Rs. 1,400 for Ventilation study, Rs, 1,500 for a whole body skeletal study and Rs. 700 for tc-99m Thyroid scan. Various non-cardiac planar/SPECT studies for bone, thyroid, liver and lungs scanning functions are performed at specialized centres in India.

Diagnostic imaging of the brain, stomach, kidneys, heart, adrenal glands as well as sites of occult infection with the help of sophisticated Gamma Camera with tomographic facilities linked to computer systems can also be performed at many of these centres.
