What happens at a nuclear medicine appointment?
It involves having a chemical put into your body that can be picked up by a scanner, similar to having a contrast dye for a CT or MRI scan. But in this case, the chemical known as a tracer or radionuclide is radioactive. The tracer gives off a type of radioactivity called gamma rays.
How do I prepare for a nuclear medicine test?
Prep can vary but may include: No amiodarone for 3 to 6 months before your scan. No IV contrast dye for 12 weeks before your scan. No multivitamins for 2 weeks before your scan. No thyroid medicine for 3 days to 4 weeks before your scan, based on the drug you take. No eating or drinking for 4 hours before your scan.
What to expect during a nuclear medicine scan?
Medical staff may ask you to wear a hospital gown, though in some cases you can wear your own clothes. Youll lie on a table or sit on a chair for the scan. Technicians use a special camera, or scanner, on the appropriate parts of your body to detect gamma rays from the tracer.
How long does a nuclear medicine test take?
A nuclear scan usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, plus the waiting time after the radioactive material is given. For bone scans, the material takes 2 to 3 hours to be absorbed.
Why would a doctor order a nuclear test?
Your provider may order this test to find out: How well a treatment (medicines, angioplasty, or heart surgery) is working. If you are at high risk for heart disease or complications. If you are planning to start an exercise program or have surgery.

What does a nuclear medicine test consist of?
Nuclear medicine imaging is a method of producing images by detecting radiation from different parts of the body after a radioactive tracer is given to the patient. The images are digitally generated on a computer and transferred to a nuclear medicine physician, who interprets the images to make a diagnosis.
