  • A bone scan is a nuclear medicine imaging exam. It can help detect, or further examine, bone and joint problems. During a bone scan, you are injected with a small amount of a radioactive substance that attaches to the bones. This video shows what happens during this two-part medical imaging exam.

    Had an MRI done recently and thankfully it was only for 20 min. I have ADHD and claustrophobic so it was very difficult to stay still. I suggest dont open eyes. Wear a cloth face mask

    why aren't the scans WITHOUT contrast doen FIRST to completely avoid having to return 2-4 hours later?

    I had one done recently. Absolutely fine. Just lie there and Dont be surprised if they strap your feet to the triangle box thingy. The nurses are good and if you dont look up you dont know theres a box over your head. Oh wrong scan haha i had a normal bone scan. Glad i disnt see this one beforehand! Be fine and marie curie made the use of radio activity possible. Honestly if claustraphobic a word with gp or doctor beforehand might give you something to take edge off

  • @GigiQ597

    I have canceled my first one in January and now I have another one in February. I have a known allergy to contrast dye and I am tired of people telling me there can be no reaction. Can someone please tell me what precautions are taking if something should go wrong? And what is the amount that is put in? I am so stressed out about this test but if I don’t do it what are my options? Finding two bone lesions on a CT scan on my pelvis and I don’t know any other alternative. Can someone please help me?
