Molecular Imaging

Molecular imaging uses very small amounts of radioactive materials inside the body to create an image of organ function and structure for diagnostic and treatment purposes. This imaging allows disease to be detected very early, often before the disease can be detected by other diagnostic tests and, in some cases, before symptoms ever occur. The biggest advantage of such early detection is to allow earlier treatment which gives the best chance for a more successful outcome. An additional advantage is the ability to visualize, locate, and study malfunctioning and diseased tissue within the body often avoiding other invasive surgical procedures.

Molecular imaging services include:

• Bone Scan
• Cardiac Stress Imaging
• Pet/CT
• SPECT/CT
• Thyroid Uptake
