Radio scintiphotography

Radioscintigraphy is a medical imaging technique that uses radioactive isotopes to create images of internal organs and tissues. This method was developed in the 1950s and has become one of the most popular diagnostic methods in medicine.

The principle of radioscintigraphy is that the patient is injected intravenously with a radioactive isotope, which is then distributed throughout the body. The patient then goes through a gamma camera, which detects radiation from the isotope. The data obtained is processed on a computer and creates an image of the internal organs.

Radioscintigraphy has many advantages over other imaging methods. It allows you to obtain a more detailed image of internal organs than X-rays or ultrasound. In addition, it does not expose the patient to radiation, as with CT or MRI.

However, radioscintigraphy also has its disadvantages. For example, it may be less accurate than other imaging methods due to the limited resolution of the gamma camera. It also requires special training and equipment, which may make it inaccessible to some patients.

Overall, radioscintigraphy remains one of the most important medical imaging techniques and continues to evolve towards improving image quality and reducing radiation exposure to patients.



Radioscintigraphy is a set of radiological methods that make it possible to obtain images of organs and tissues through the use of radioactive isotopes. Thus, a radioactive nuclide is formed in the human body, which decays, releasing high-energy gamma radiation. This radiation is detected by a special
