You can change the bubble size to be based on exclusions from the Size menu.
What do Nuclear Medicine Physicians do?
A nuclear medicine specialist uses the properties of radioactive atoms and molecules for the diagnosis and treatment of disease, as well as for research.
Radiation detection and imaging instrument systems are used to detect disease as it changes the function and metabolism of normal cells, tissues, and organs.
A wide variety of diseases can be detected in this way, usually before the organ involved by the disease shows abnormal structure by other techniques.
Early detection of coronary artery disease (including acute heart attacks), early cancer detection and evaluation of tumor treatment effects, diagnosis of infections and inflammation anywhere in the body, and early detection of blood clots in the lungs are all possible with these techniques.
Unique forms of radioactive molecules can attack and kill cancer cells (e.g., lymphoma, thyroid cancer) or can relieve the severe pain of cancer that has spread to the bone.
