Nuclear medicine

Nuclear imaging plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and heart patients.

Radioactive substances are used as the radiation can be picked up by a special gamma camera.

The cameras do more than look at the structure of the body – they examine how the body is reacting and functioning.

Gamma cameras are on site at The Royal London and Barts Hospitals.
