Nuclear medicine imaging in Delaware County, NY

WALTON, NY — Delaware Valley Hospital announced the addition of nuclear medicine imaging services, in partnership with Heart Care Imaging (HCI). The new expansion in radiology services is commonly offered at larger hospital systems. Nuclear medicine allows physicians to see how various organs actually are functioning. Due to the ability to see the function versus just the anatomy of a particular organ, it can identify abnormalities very early in the process of a disease—long before many medical problems are seen with other types of imaging.
Nuclear medicine uses very small amounts of a tracer that the nuclear imaging cameras detect to provide exact images of the area of the body being examined.
For more information on nuclear medicine and other testing services available at DVH, visit www.nyuhs.org or call the hospital’s imaging department at 607/865-2126.
