Nuclear Medicine at Sacred Heart Medical Center
 


The versatile SKYLight camera allows nuclear medicine
technologists to image patients while
standing, sitting, or lying down.

 Nuclear medicine is a type of radiology that uses very small amounts of radioactive material to diagnose and sometimes treat disease. Nuclear medicine is safe; it carries about the same risk as a common x-ray. Nuclear Medicine is effective; it can help detect a wide variety of conditions such as stress fractures, cancer, heart disease, blood clots, thyroid disease, arthritis and infection.
 
Sacred Heart’s Nuclear Medicine Department offers a complete array of current diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Physician offices needing to schedule a patient for a scan may call (541) 222-2710. 
Lists of required scheduling information and printable patient information sheets are available for
several types of scans.
