The Nuclear Medicine department at Sir H. N. Reliance Foundation Hospital and Research Centre offers a wide range of services including diagnostic imaging and radionuclide therapy options. Equipped with state-of-the-art technology, this department provides facilities that are at par with international standards. Advances in the field of medicine have made it possible for doctors to study not only the structural details of organs in health and disease but also their functions. The PET/CT and Gamma Camera Imaging (Planar, SPECT and SPECT/CT) services transform ‘Medical Care’ to ‘Personalized Medical Care’ by providing precise understanding of the molecular processes like metabolism, receptor expression, and other changes happening at a cellular level varying from patient to patient significantly improving their diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
