About Nuclear Medicine Jobs
Nuclear medicine is a subspecialty of radiology. Examinations are made from images of the body and its functions. The images are developed based on the detection of emitted energy from a radioactive material given to patients. It can be given either by injecting it directly into a vein or be given by mouth. For the most part, the amount of radiation to a patient is similar to that of a standard x-ray test.
Generally it takes 20 to 45 minutes to complete the scan. Depending on the type of scan it could be done immediately after the radiopharmaceutical agent is given, a few hours later, or even several days after the injection.(Source: radiologyinfo.com)
