This document provides information on nuclear medicine studies including the radiotracer, dose, and route of administration. It lists several common nuclear medicine scans such as bone, hepatobiliary, MUGA, parathyroid, renal, and thyroid scans. For each scan, it indicates the radiotracer used, typical dose, and whether it is administered intravenously or orally. Relevant preparation instructions are also provided, such as use of lasix for renal scans or administration of sincalide for hepatobiliary scans.
