radionuclide imaging

Preferred Label : radionuclide imaging;

MeSH definition : The production of an image obtained by cameras that detect the radioactive emissions of an injected radionuclide as it has distributed differentially throughout tissues in the body. The image obtained from a moving detector is called a scan, while the image obtained from a stationary camera device is called a scintiphotograph.;

MeSH synonym : gamma camera imaging; imaging, radionuclide; radioisotope scanning; scintigraphy; imaging, gamma camera; scanning, radioisotope;

CISMeF synonym : ri;

MeSH hyponym : scintiphotography;

MeSH annotation : IM general or unspecified only: prefer / radionuclide with disease or anatomical term: Manual 19.7 , 19.8.62; IM general only; coordinate NIM with anatomical term or disease term /diag image;
