Assignment 2: Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine is a specialized branch of modern medicine
that exploits the process of radioactivity for imaging, diagnosis, and
treatment. Many imaging techniques inject small amounts of radioactive material
into the body, which are then tracked by a sensing device specific to the type
of radiation emitted from that material. Radiation has also been used to
destroy diseased tissue, typically beyond the reach of standard surgical
techniques.
Using the readings for this module, the Argosy University
online library resources, and the Internet, write a paper on nuclear medicine.
Address the following:
Support your statements with examples. Provide a minimum of
three scholarly references.
Write a 2–3-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards
to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention:
