Bone Scintigraphy

A bone scan or bone scintigraphy is the most sensitive scanning test available to find abnormalities in bone. It is primarily used to help diagnose a number of conditions relating to bones, including: cancer of the bone or cancers that have spread (metastasized) to the bone, locating some sources of bone inflammation (e.g. arthritis, bone pain such as lower back pain due to a fracture), the diagnosis of fractures that may not be visible in traditional X-ray images, and the detection of damage to bones due to certain infections and other problems. The nuclear bone scan competes with the FDG-PET scan in seeing abnormal metabolism in bones, but it is considerably less expensive

Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (SPECT) has been shown to be more cost-effective than any other diagnostic modality to date in detecting myocardial ischemia. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a nuclear medicine topographic imaging technique that uses gamma rays to provide 3-dimensional (3D) cardiac images. The study offers detailed information about cardiac perfusion and function including wall motion, wall thinkenning and ejection fraction
