Nuclear medicine diagnostic services
in México City
Nuclear medicine studies make it possible to evaluate organ function in an early and precise way, even before symptoms appear. This information is key for early disease detection and for planning timely, personalized treatment.
Common causes
Nuclear medicine helps identify diseases in their early stages and determine how advanced they are. Thanks to this, physicians can make more accurate decisions and create specific treatment plans for each patient.
Cancer diagnosis and follow-up
In cancer detection, these studies help locate tumors and assess whether the disease has spread to other parts of the body. They are also used to monitor treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy, allowing doctors to evaluate the body’s response and adjust the treatment plan when necessary.
Cardiac function
These studies analyze blood flow to the heart muscle and detect abnormalities in heart function. They are also useful for identifying damage after a heart attack.
Brain function
In the brain, nuclear medicine helps detect changes in blood flow and areas of neurological damage. It is a key tool in diagnosing conditions such as dementia, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, brain tumors, and the aftereffects of stroke.
Thyroid disorders
These studies allow physicians to assess thyroid function, diagnose hypo- or hyperthyroidism, follow treatment progress, analyze nodules, and detect whether thyroid cancer has spread to other areas.
Treatments and procedures
The studies use a minimal and safe amount of a radioactive tracer, administered orally or by injection. The tracer targets the organ being evaluated and allows detailed images to be obtained, revealing functional changes before they are visible on other imaging studies.
