Bone Scan Procedure | Dr. Paulien Moyaert

This video explains the procedure of bone scanning, covering several key topics. It begins with an overview of what a bone scan is, its purpose in diagnosing conditions like fractures, infections, and cancer lesions, and how it differs from an X-ray. The video then outlines the step-by-step process, starting with patient check-in, preparation, and the injection of a radioactive tracer into the bloodstream. It describes how the tracer accumulates in the bones and the imaging process, including the three-phase bone scan for specific conditions. The video also addresses common concerns about radiation exposure and provides details on post-scan care and the interpretation of scan results. Finally, it highlights the importance of patient history in diagnosing abnormalities detected by the scan.

I have a knee implant. Is it safe to have a bone scan with knee implant and OA?

In the USA, I was told by my doctor, that it's only a small area that can be scanned, and they usually only scan one side. Instead of scanned left & right arm, they would only scan one of them. She said it's insurance that doesn't want to pay for this procedure. shocker. Preventative care is hard to get. I lost my teeth after having my son & the best I can get is terribly painful dentures. That make me gag & I can't chew while I wear them. I just want implants but obviously I can't afford. Any advice?

Hi! I'm sorry, I'm based in Europe, so I don't know the procedures in the USA. :(
