bonescan

<div><strong>What is a Bone Scan?</strong> <br />(also known as Wholebody Bone Scan and Localised Bone Scan)<br />A bone scan is a nuclear imaging test that helps diagnose and track several types of bone disease. Your doctor may order a bone scan if you have unexplained skeletal pain, a bone infection or a bone injury that cannot be seen on a standard X-ray. It safely uses a very small amount of a radioactive drug called a radiopharmaceutical; this drug will not impair you in any way.</div>
<div>This scan is different to a DEXA/BMD- Bone Mineral Density.<br /><br /></div>
<div><strong>How long does a Bone scan take?</strong></div>
<div>Please allow between 4 - 5 hours to complete your scan. Due to the length this scan takes appointments are only made in the morning.</div>
<div><br /><strong>What preparation is there for a Bone Scan?</strong></div>
<div>No preparation is required for this scan. Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card.</div>
<div><br /><strong>What does a bone scan involve?</strong></div>
<div>A bone scan is conducted in 2 parts:</div>
<div>First part takes 30 minutes and involves a small injection in a vein in your arm and some scan pictures are taken immediately.</div>
<div>You will then be given a time to return to the practice, usually 2 &ndash; 3 hours after the injection.</div>
<div>When you return for the second part, your scan will take 1 hour. You will not be under the scanner for an entire hour, a series of different pictures are taken.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br /><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results. This report and the scan images will be sent securely electronically to your referring doctor/specialist. If you require your results to be sent to a different doctor please advise the staff on the day of your scan.</div>
<div><br /><strong>Are there any costs for this scan?</strong></div>
<div>No, your scan will be Bulk Billed. This means there is NO out of pocket cost for you if you qualify for Medicare.<br /><br /><br /></div>

<div><br /><strong>What does a Myocardial Perfusion Scan involve?</strong></div>
<div>Part 1: REST: You will be given a small injection of a radioactive tracer that is taken up by the heart muscle. This injection will not make you feel any different. Following a short wait (20-60 minutes), images will be acquired of your heart. This part of the test takes about 1 hour.</div>
<div>There will then be a short wait (1-2 hours) before part 2. This wait is to allow for the first injection to decay and excrete your body, during this wait you will be required to stay in the practice.</div>
<div>Part 2: STRESS: This involves exercise on a bike. If you are unable to exercise an injection of medication is used to artificially stress the heart. An ECG is performed, and your blood pressure is noted. Once your heart is at peak stress, another injection of radioactive tracer is administered. Following this stress test, you will be offered a tea or coffee and some refreshments. After 20-60 minutes, more images will be acquired of your heart. This part of the test can take between 1 &ndash; 2 hours.</div>
<div><br /><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results.

Myocardial Perfusion Scan

lungvqscan

<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>What is a Lung (V/Q) Scan?</strong><br />(also known as: Lung Ventilation and Perfusion Scan)<br />A Lung (V/Q) scan, also called a Ventilation (V) Perfusion (Q) scan, is made up of two scans that examine air flow and blood flow in your lungs. The first scan measures how well air flows through your lungs. The second scan looks at where the blood flows in your lungs.<br /><br />If the lungs are working properly, the air flow seen on the ventilation scan will match the blood flow seen on the perfusion scan. A mismatch between the ventilation and perfusion scans (V better than Q) could indicate a blockage or PE.<br /><br /><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/comark-user-uploads/60ab24daed950f29a1ea1722.jpg" alt="Image" width="320" height="242" /></p>

Parathyroid Scan

renalscandtpadmsa

<p>Note that there are two different Renal (Kidney) scans -- Renal DTPA Scan and Renal DMSA Scan.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1>Renal DTPA Scan</h1>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>What is a Renal DTPA Scan?</strong><br />A renal DTPA scan is a nuclear medicine exam in which a small amount of radioactive material (radioisotope) is used to measure the function of the kidneys, to see how the left and right kidney work comparatively. This test allows any sites of blockage to be identified and detected.<br /><br /><strong>How long does a Renal DTPA Scan take?</strong><br />Please allow approximately 1 hour to complete your scan</p>
<p><strong>What preparation is there for a Renal DTPA scan?</strong><br />You must drink 1 litre of water in the 1 hours prior to your examination. You can go to the toilet as often as you need to. <br />Please advise the practice if you are taking blood pressure medication.<br />Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card.</p>
<p><strong>What does a Renal DTPA Scan involve?</strong><br />The basic procedure for performing a DTPA Renal Scan may vary slightly depending on the specific information that we require about your kidneys prior to your scan.&nbsp;For example, a blood pressure tablet or an injection called Lasix may need to be given either prior to or at some stage during the examination.</p>
<p>You will be administered with a small injection of a radioactive tracer. This injection will not make you feel any different. This injection allows the Kidneys and Bladder to be seen by the camera. The scan is started immediately, and images are taken for 30 minutes whilst lying under the camera.<br />A second injection of Lasix may be given to promote the Kidneys to empty.&nbsp;<br />At the end of the scan, you may be asked to go to the toilet and empty your bladder, then return for a further 5 minutes of imaging.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If your referral includes the term &lsquo;Captopril&rsquo; your scan involves being given a blood pressure medication 1 hour before your scan, and your blood pressure will be constantly monitored over the hour, then you will be administered with a small injection of radioactive tracer, this injection will not make you feel any different, and images are taken for 20 minutes.</p>
<p><strong>When are the results available?</strong><br />After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results. This report and the scan images will be sent securely electronically to your referring doctor/specialist. If you require your results to be sent to a different doctor please advise the staff on the day of your scan.</p>
<p><strong>Are there any costs for this scan?</strong><br />No, your scan will be Bulk Billed. This means there is NO out of pocket cost for you if you qualify for Medicare.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1>Renal DMSA Scan</h1>
<div><strong>What is a Renal DMSA Scan?</strong></div>

Renal Scan - DTPA/DMSA

sentinelnodelymphoscintigraphy

<div><strong>What is a Sentinel Node Lymphoscintigraphy?</strong></div>
<div>A lymphoscintigraphy, or sentinel lymph node scan, is a test used to find which lymph nodes are the first to get fluid drainage from the area of the body near where a lump has been discovered. These scans are usually done in the breast area. They are usually done just before you have a biopsy or surgery.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>How long does a Sentinel Node Lymphoscintigraphy take?</strong></div>
<div>Please allow approximately 1 &ndash; 1 and a half hours for this scan. Your appointment will be booked in on the same day as your surgery, prior to your surgery time.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>

<div>No preparation is required for this scan. Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>What does a Sentinel Node Lymphoscintigraphy involve?</strong></div>
<div>For this test, you will have one or more injections of a small amount of a radiopharmaceutical (radioactive tracer) into the area of interest. This might be quite painful; however, these injections will not make you feel any different. The tracer goes with the fluid as it drains into nearby lymph nodes. You will be required to massage the area of the injections to promote cellular fluid movement. A special camera is then used to take pictures which show the lymph nodes that are the first to drain fluid.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results.

<div><strong>What does a Lymphoscintigraphy involve?</strong></div>
<div>This examination uses a small amount of radioactive tracer to follow the natural lymphatic flow of your legs or arms. You will receive one or two small injections into each foot at the beginning of the procedure. The injection will sting for a brief period; however, the rest of the procedure is painless and these injections will not make you feel any different. Once the injection has been administered you will be asked to walk around for 15 minutes to encourage lymphatic flow. You will then be positioned beneath the gamma camera which will take an image of you from your feet to your pelvis. This imaging will take approximately 30 minutes. You will then be asked to walk around for a further 15 minutes and then further imaging will be taken. This procedure will be repeated several times, until the tracer makes its way to your liver, which can take between one and two hours. In some cases, the radiologist may ask to take pictures 2-3 hours after the administered injection to see how the tracer travels through your body.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>For an arm lymphoscintigraphy, you will receive one or two small injections into each hand. Once the injection has been administered your arms will be positioned into the gamma camera which will take an image of your arms. This imaging will take approximately 20 minutes.

<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>What is a Hepatobiliary Scan</strong><br />(alspo known as a HIDA Scan or Gallbladder Scan)<br />A Hepatobiliary Scan is performed to assess the ability of the gallbladder to fill and empty as well as the function of the biliary tree.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>How long does a Hepatobiliary Scan take?</strong><br />Please allow 2 hours for this test to be completed. Appointments are made in the early afternoon due to the preparation required, as outline below.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>What preparation is there for a Hepatobiliary Scan?</strong><br />Inform the practice if you have had your Gallbladder removed<br />You need to fast for 4 hours prior to this test. You are advised to eat breakfast on the morning of the test, before 8:00AM, then only have a small amount of clear fluids until you attend the practice for your appointment. It is important to eat breakfast, because a long period (6+ hours) of fasting can affect the results.<br />Opiate medication (e.g. Endone) must be ceased more than 8 hours prior to the test.<br />Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>What does a Hepatobiliary Scan involve?</strong><br /><u>For patients with a Gallbladder</u><br />This test works in two parts:</p>
<ul>
<li class="MsoNormal">Part one - a&nbsp;small injection of a radioactive tracer is administered into a vein in the arm. This injection will not make you feel any different. This injection travels through the body and fills up your gallbladder. <br />After the injection you are asked to wait in the waiting room for 45 minutes. After that time you will be place under a scanning camera and images are obtained for 5 minutes. <br />If a sufficient amount of the tracer is visible in your gallbladder you move on to part two; if the gallbladder isn&rsquo;t visible you will be asked to wait a further 20 minutes and imaging will be repeated. If a sufficient amount of the tracer is visible in your gallbladder you move on to part two; if the gallbladder isn&rsquo;t visible this concludes the test.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li class="MsoNormal">Part two - the second part involves drinking a dietary supplement (Vanilla or Chocolate flavour). Once you have finished the drink, you will be asked to wait in the waiting room for 45 minutes. After that time images are then taken to show how the gallbladder empties.</li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u>For patients who have had their Gallbladder removed</u><br />A small intravenous injection of &lsquo;tracer&rsquo; will be injected into a vein in your arm. This injection will not make you feel any different. This injection travels through the body and through your common bile duct. The scan starts immediately. Images are taken continuously for approximately 90 minutes. During the images, after 45 minutes you will be asked to drink a dietary supplement (Vanilla or Chocolate flavour) and the images continue to 90 minutes.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>When are the results available?</strong><br />After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results.

Gallium White Cell Count (WCC) Scan

gatedheartpoolscanghps

<div><strong>What is a Gated Heart Pool Scan (GHPS)?</strong></div>
<div>A Gated Heart Pool Scan (GHPS) is a test used to determine how well the heart is pumping. It may be performed if there is concern that your heart has been damaged, or to make sure the heart is working properly before and during chemotherapy.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>How long does a Gated Heart Pool Scan take?</strong></div>
<div>The scan will take about 1 and a half hours to complete.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>What preparation is there for a Gated Heart Pool Scan?</strong></div>
<div>No preparation is required for this scan. Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>What does a Gated Heart Pool Scan involve?</strong></div>
<div>The test involves 2 small injections into a vein in your arm. These injection&rsquo;s will not make you feel any different. The first injection (Tin or Stannous Chloride) mixes with the red blood cells and prepares them for the second injection. The second injection is given 15 minutes later, and is a small amount of a radioactive tracer. This will then &ldquo;stick&rdquo; to the red blood cells, so that when you are lying on a scanning bed under a special camera, the blood within the heart can be visualised. You will be required to lie still during the pictures and breathe normally. You will also be connected to an ECG machine while the pictures are being taken.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results. This report and the scan images will be sent securely electronically to your referring doctor/specialist. If you require your results to be sent to a different doctor, please advise the staff on the day of your scan.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>Are there any costs for this scan?</strong></div>
<div>No, your scan will be Bulk Billed. This means there is NO out of pocket cost for you if you qualify for Medicare.<br /><br /></div>

Gated Heart Pool Scan (GHPS)

cerebralperfusionceretecscan

<div><strong>What is a Cerebral Perfusion (Ceretec) Scan?</strong></div>
<div>A Cerebral Perfusion or Ceretec scan looks at brain function by demonstrating the amount of blood taken up by the brain cells. This scan is designed to show if some parts of the brain are working more than normal or less than normal. Conditions such as dementia, epilepsy and stroke can be diagnosed according to the distribution of the tracer within the brain.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>How long does a Cerebral Perfusion Scan take?</strong></div>
<div>The scan will take about 1 and a half hours to complete.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>What preparation is there for a Cerebral Perfusion Scan?</strong></div>
<div>No preparation is required for this scan. Please bring your referral from the doctor, any relevant recent scans/tests, and your Medicare card.&nbsp;It is advised that if the patient is suffering dementia, they should be accompanied to the appointment.&nbsp;</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>What does a Cerebral Perfusion Scan involve?</strong></div>
<div>Cerebral perfusion studies are always performed early in the morning to ensure the practice is quiet. Upon arrival you will be taken into a room where an IV cannula (a thin plastic tube) will be inserted into a vein in your arm. The scan requires you to rest for 20-30 minutes in a quiet, darkened room before the radiopharmaceutical can be given. You will most likely be alone during this time so that your brain is not stimulated by any interaction you may have with another person. <br /><br />To ensure you stay rested, the technologist may advise you that when they enter the room to inject the radiopharmaceutical you do not acknowledge them but just pretend they are not there. Once the radiopharmaceutical is injected, you will need to rest for a further 10-30 minutes before the scanning begins. This injection will not make you feel any different.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>You will be required to lie still for up to 30 minutes and your head will be resting in a head holder. A scanning camera will rotate around your head. It will come quite close to your head but will not touch it. You may close your eyes.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>After your scan is completed a Nuclear Medicine Physician will review your scan and write a report of the results. This report and the scan images will be sent securely electronically to your referring doctor/specialist. If you require your results to be sent to a different doctor, please advise the staff on the day of your scan.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div><strong>Are there any costs for this scan?</strong></div>
<div>No, your scan will be Bulk Billed. This means there is NO out of pocket cost for you if you qualify for Medicare.<br /><br /></div>

Meckel’s Diverticulum Study

i131capsuletherapy

<div><strong>What is I-131 Capsule Therapy?</strong><br />(also known as Radioiodine therapy)</div>
<div>Radioiodine therapy is a nuclear medicine treatment for an overactive thyroid, a condition called hyperthyroidism, and also may be used to treat thyroid cancer. When a small dose of radioactive iodine I-131 (an isotope of iodine that emits radiation) is swallowed, it is absorbed into the bloodstream and concentrated by the thyroid gland, where it begins destroying the gland's cells.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br /><strong>How long does a I-131 Capsule Therapy take?</strong></div>
<div>You will be booked in for an initial consult visit with one of our Nuclear Medicine physicians who will discuss the therapy with you. This initial visit will take approximately 30 minutes.<br /><br /></div>
<div>After the consult you will make an appointment with us for the delivery of the I-131 capsule. This appointment will take approximately 15 minutes.</div>
<div><br /><strong>What preparation is there for a I-131 Capsule Therapy?</strong></div>
<div>If you have been taking anti-thyroid medications, you must stop at least three days before the therapy is given. Frequently, the anti-thyroid medication is stopped for five to seven days before therapy.</div>
<div><br />You will be able to return home following radioactive iodine treatment, but you should avoid prolonged, close contact with other people for several days, particularly pregnant women and small children. The majority of the radioactive iodine that has not been absorbed leaves the body during the first two days following the treatment, primarily through the urine. Small amounts will also be excreted in saliva, sweat, tears, vaginal secretions, and feces.<br /><br /></div>
<div>If your work or daily activities involve prolonged contact with small children or pregnant women, you will want to wait several days after your treatment to resume these activities. Patients with infants at home should arrange for care to be provided by another person for the first several days after treatment. The Nuclear Medicine physician will be more specific during the initial consult for your given situation, but usually this time period is only two to five days.</div>
<div><br />
<p style="line-height: 116px;">The Nuclear Medicine physician will give you a list of other precautions to take following your treatment with I-131. The following are some guidelines to comply with:</p>
</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Use private toilet facilities, if possible, and flush twice after each use.</li>
<li>Bathe daily and wash hands frequently.</li>
<li>Drink a normal amount of fluids.</li>
<li>Use disposable eating utensils or wash your utensils separately from others.</li>
<li>Sleep alone and avoid prolonged intimate contact for three or four days. Brief periods of close contact, such as handshaking and hugging, are permitted.</li>
<li>Launder your linens, towels, and clothes daily at home, separately. No special cleaning of the washing machine is required between loads.</li>
<li>Do not prepare food for others that requires prolonged handling with bare hands.</li>
<li>If you are breast-feeding, you must stop several days before to ensure that milk production has also stopped.</li>
<li>You should avoid becoming pregnant from six months to one year after treatment.</li>
<li>You must be sure you are not pregnant before receiving I-131.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>Patients who need to travel immediately after radioactive iodine treatment are advised to carry a letter of explanation from their physician. Radiation detection devices used at airports and federal buildings may be sensitive to the radiation levels present in patients up to three months following treatment with I-131. Depending on the amount of radioactivity administered during your treatment, your endocrinologist or radiation safety officer may recommend continued precautions for up to several weeks after treatment.</div>
<div><br /><strong>What dose a I-131 Capsule Therapy Involve?</strong></div>
<div>You will be booked in for an initial consult visit with one of our Nuclear Medicine physicians who will discuss the therapy with you. This initial visit will take approximately 30 minutes. During this consult you will discuss with the Nuclear Medicine physician your suitability for I-131 therapy, as well as the precautions that you must adhere to after the administration of the I-131 capsule.</div>
<div>After the consult you will make an appointment with us for the delivery of the I-131 capsule. This appointment will take approximately 15 minutes. You will be taken into a consult room, where you will be asked if you had any follow up questions after your consult visit. Then you will be administered the I-131 capsule. You will be instructed to tip the capsule directly into your mouth from its container and not handle the capsule with your hands. You will be given a glass of water and instructed to swallow the capsule in one go. Following the administration of the capsule you will be able to leave the practice.&nbsp;<br /><br /></div>
<div><strong>When are the results available?</strong></div>
<div>Following the administration of the capsule a Nuclear Medicine Physician will write a report detailing the administration of the therapy capsule to you. This report will be sent securely electronically to your referring doctor/specialist. If you require your results to be sent to a different doctor, please advise the staff on the day of your scan.<br /><br /></div>
<div><strong>Are there any costs for this scan?</strong></div>
<div>No, your scan will be Bulk Billed. This means there is NO out of pocket cost for you if you qualify for Medicare.<br /><br /></div>
