Nuclear medicine is the advanced technology invented for the diagnosis of all those patients who are suffering from cardiovascular disease or any other serious ailment. Unlike the X-rays technology, it is more advance medical diagnostic equipment.

In comparison other medical equipment, it uses low frequency radiation and releases gamma rays through a lens known as collimator. The advantage of this technology is – you can regulate the frequency of nuclear medicine collimators; this is the reason that you can easily scan various parts of the body to determine the internal injuries. If any sort of internal injury has occurred inside the body such as internal bleeding or any other injury of such kind then it can be easily detected through this technique.

In fact, this medical equipment works like the lens of camera that can be tuned as per the convenience; this facility assists the respective doctors to examine the affected organs such as brain, lungs, liver, pancreas, spleen, or even kidneys of the patients. Likewise, it assists the doctors to cure the damaged tissues and organs of the patients properly.

This new equipment designed in such a way that collimator refracts the gamma rays through a crystal. Actually, this crystal is pointed over a pre-designated part of the body with the purpose to send an image of the targeted organ on the screen attached with the equipment so that it can be seen by the doctors and the surgeons. Once, the doctors get the image of injury of the internal organ of the body then it becomes easy for them to cure the patient.

For the treatment of certain diseases, radiotracers are used to give intravenous injections of a substance that carries gamma rays. Furthermore, nuclear medicine can also by used to detect a tumor or cancerous growth within the body of the patient at very early stage.

Moreover, the nuclear medicine is one of the latest medical equipment to diagnose many of the fatal diseases of the modern life.
