Significant diseases and conditions treated at
Nuclear Cardiology practices include schaemic heart disease, coronary artery disease and cardiomyopathy.
Medical tests, procedures and therapies provided by Nuclear Cardiology
practices include supervising cardiac stress tests and cardiac specific radiotracking, SPECT gamma imaging analysis, fusion/hybrid imaging (structural with CT/MR + functional SPECT/PET), multiple gated acquisition (MUGA), radionuclide angiography, ventriculography, or gated pool imaging.
