This "nucleus" is not the other "nucleus". It can be used to diagnose and treat
nuclear medicine "nucleus" in , which refers to radionuclide , which is not the same as the "nucleus" of nuclear magnetic resonance, and is also different from the "nucleus" of nuclear weapon . It uses modern science and technology such as nuclear physics, computer imaging technology, and biochemistry to diagnose, treat and research diseases.
Nuclear Medicine includes two parts: nuclide diagnosis and nuclide treatment . Nuclear medical examinations include SPECT/CT, PET/CT, thyroid 131 iodine rate determination, etc.
At present, SPECT/CT of the nuclear medicine department plays an increasingly important role in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid disease , diagnosis and treatment of tumor bone metastasis, measurement of renal function GFR, myocardial blood flow perfusion imaging to determine myocardial ischemia and myocardial survival, cerebral blood flow perfusion imaging to diagnose epilepsy, senile dementia , etc.
It is understood that there are 3 chief physicians in the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Nansha Hospital, Guangzhou First People's Hospital, 1 deputy chief physician, 3 doctors, 3 technicians, and 5 nurses.

PET-CT can detect tumors. The whole body examination only takes 3 minutes
"The full name of PET-CT is 'positron emission computed tomography'. It is currently the highest-end medical imaging device. It can detect and identify tumors and is very helpful for the stage and determination of the treatment plan."
Guangdong According to the deputy director of the Department of Nuclear Medicine of the First People's Hospital of Zhou City and director of the Department of Nuclear Medicine of Nansha Hospital, Zhu Xusheng, , unlike ordinary CT that can only reflect changes in human anatomy of , PET-CT can also reflect changes in organisms in functional metabolism. "Only by combining the two aspects can the level of lesions are fully expressed."
It is reported that PET-CT can detect lesions of millimeter size, and there is no need to perform segmental examinations on various parts of the body like ordinary CT. The fastest body examination is only 3 minutes. The patient needs to be on an empty stomach for 5 to 6 hours and his blood sugar level does not exceed 10 mmol/L to undergo examination.
Look at Grand Bay Area , creating a new medical highland
It is understood that Guangzhou First People's Hospital Nansha Hospital aims at the forefront of clinical development at home and abroad and the development trend of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area . In addition to the construction of Abrupt- Bone Marrow Transplantation Center, Guangzhou Digestive Disease Center, 120+ Critical Care Treatment-Rehabilitation Center, Direct-Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Center, and PET-CT/Nucleotherapy Center have been built one after another.
"I believe that the establishment of the nuclear medicine department of the Greater Bay Area Highlands will comprehensively promote the early completion of the Nansha Hospital Abruption-Bone Marrow Transplantation Center; vigorously promote the cooperation and industrial development of medical cooperation and industrial development between the First People's Hospital of the City of Nansha Hospital and Hong Kong and Macao; and further promote the high-quality development of the research hospital of the First People's Hospital of Guangzhou."
