Nuclear Cardiology

Nuclear Cardiology is a non-invasive method for studying cardiovascular diseases using nuclear imaging techniques. These techniques are used to assess myocardial blood flow, evaluate the pumping function of the heart as well as visualize the size and location of a heart attack. Among the techniques of nuclear cardiology, myocardial perfusion imaging (nuclear stress tests) is the most widely used. The test usually involves injecting radioactive dye, then taking two sets of images of your heart — one at rest and another after exertion. The result shows the areas with poor blood flow or damage in the heart. A nuclear stress test is one of several types of stress tests that may be performed alone or in combination. Nuclear medicine imaging provides unique information that often cannot be obtained using other imaging procedures and offers the potential to identify disease in its earliest stages.
