Nuclear Medicine   Nuclear Medicine is another imaging technique that uses advanced technology. Specialized medicines are injected into the body and go to specific organs such as the heart, bone or liver. Then we obtain images of, or measure functional information about, these organs. Most examinations require no special preparation. Some require food to be withheld for a short time prior to the study. Your physician's office may schedule your appointment Monday - Friday at Maplewood Imaging Center or Forsyth Medical Center. Preparing for Your Nuclear Medicine Examination
