Bone Scan
A bone scan is a specialised radiological procedure used to identify areas of physical and chemical changes in various bones of the skeleton. A bone scan is sometime performed to follow the progress of treatment in certain conditions.
DEXA scan
DEXA scan is a test that measures bone mineral density to evaluate osteoporosis risk and monitor bone health. It is particularly useful for postmenopausal women and individuals at risk of fractures.
Renal DTPA Scan
Renal DTPA scan is a dynamic study used to measures kidney filtration and function by assessing glomerular filtration rate (GFR), useful for evaluating renal function in patients with kidney disease.
Thyroid Scan
Thyroid scan is a nuclear medicine test that evaluates the structures and function of the thyroid gland. It helps in diagnosing hyperthyroidism, thyroid nodules, goitre or thyroid cancer. A small amount of technetium-99m is used to create detail image of the thyroid.
I-131 whole body scan (Differentiated thyroid canc
An I-131 scan is an important imaging tool for diagnosing and treating thyroid disorders. Performing pre- and post-therapy scans in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer enables disease surveillance and assists clinicians in determining the most suitable treatment approach
Octreotide scan (somatostatin receptor studies)
An octreotide scan is a type of SPECT scintigraphy used to find carcinoid, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, and to localize sarcoidosis. It is also called somatostatin receptor scintigraphy
Three-phase bone scan
Three-phase bone scan provides a more detail evaluation of bone condition, using three imaging phases to assess blood flow, soft tissue, and bone activity, helping diagnose osteomyelitis or
Static bone scan
Static bone scan detects bone abnormalities such as fractures, infections, tumors or metastases by vassalizing areas of increased bone activity.
Renal DMSA scan
A renal DMSA scan is a static imaging study that identifies kidney scarring, infections, or abnormalities in kidney shape and size
Renal MAG-3 scan
A renal MAG-3 scan is a dynamic study used to examines kidney drainage and function, particularly useful in diagnosing urinary obstructions or assessing renal perfusion.
Cardia Scan (Myocardial Perfusion Imaging)
Myocardial perfusion imaging uses radioactive tracers to evaluate blood flow to the heart muscle at rest and during stress. It helps detect coronary artery disease, assess heart function, and guide treatment for heart conditions.
Spleen Scan
A spleen scan is a diagnostic test to assess spleen size, function, and detect conditions such as accessory spleens, splenic trauma, or functional asplenia.
Hepatobiliary Scan (HIDA Scan)
HIDA scan is a test used to evaluate gallbladder function, bile duct obstruction, and liver drainage. Commonly used to diagnose gallstones, bile leaks, or cholecystitis.
Meckel’s scan
Meckel’s scan detects ectopic gastric mucosa, often in the small intestine, helping diagnose Meckel’s diverticulum, a congenital condition that can cause gastrointestinal bleeding.
Octreotide Scan
Octreotide scan is a nuclear medicine test that identifies neuroendocrine tumors by targeting somatostatin receptors found in these tumors, aiding in diagnosis and treatment planning.
Parathyroid scan
Parathyroid scan is used to locates overactive parathyroid glands causing hyperparathyroidism, often due to adenomas or hyperplasia, guiding surgical treatment if necessary.
Iodine -131 whole body scan
An Iodine -131 whole body scan is used in patients with thyroid cancer to detect residual thyroid tissue or metastases after thyroidectomy. It uses radioactive iodine to target thyroid cells throughout the body.
MIBG scan
MIBG scan helps detect and monitor tumors like pheochromocytomas, neuroblastomas, and paragangliomas. The scan uses radioactive iodine attached to MIBG, which is absorbed by adrenergic tissue.
99mTc-HYNIC-TATE scan
99mTc-HYNIC-TATE scan is a specialized scan for detecting neuroendocrine tumors, particularly those expressing somatostatin receptors. It provides precise imaging for tumor localization and treatment planning.
99mTc-PSMA scan
99mTc-PSMA scan is a state-of-the-art scan to identify prostate cancer metastases. It targets prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) on cancer cells, offering highly accurate detection.
Lymphoscintigraphy Scan
A lymphoscintigraphy scan maps the lymphatic system to evaluate drainage patterns and detect sentinel lymph nodes. Often used in cancer patients to guide surgical planning and assess lymphatic blockages.
GESTRO INTESTINAL BLEED (GI BLEED) SCAN
GI bleed scan is a nuclear medicine procedure to identify active gastrointestinal bleeding. The scan uses a small amount of radioactive tracer injected into the blood stream, highlighting the location of bleeding within the digestive tract. This test is non-invasive, highly sensitive, and helps guid...
