Gamma Scan (Nuclear Medicine)
Gamma Scanning (also known as Nuclear Medicine Imaging) is a specialized diagnostic technique that uses small amounts of radioactive material (radiotracers) to examine organ function, detect tumors, infections, and bone diseases. It provides functional insights rather than just anatomical images — often essential in early detection of abnormalities.
At Tahra Radiology Center, we operate advanced Gamma Cameras and strictly follow international safety protocols to ensure patient comfort and diagnostic accuracy.
