Nuclear Medicine [Elektronische Daten] [J.H. McKillop] Nuclear medicine has developed in the past 40 years and is now a fully established medical speciality. It depends on the use of unsealed radionuclides and the tracer principle. Nuclear medicine diagnostic procedures yield mainly functional information and contribute to the management of a wide spectrum of diseases. Therapeutic nuclear medicine utilises targeted radiation damage at the disease site and has applications in both benign and malignant diseases. The future directions for nuclear medicine include increasing use of tomographic methods and the development of radiopharmaceuticals which localise on receptors.
