Timing is everything when your physician is looking at disease progressions. The patient-focused, skilled nuclear medicine staff at North Oaks Diagnostic Center performs diagnostic studies that provide your results faster, whether it's cancer staging or evaluating heart disease.

Nuclear medicine uses low levels of radioactive material to diagnose disease. This is one of the few procedures that looks at the entire body and it is used to detect:

• Areas of Cancer
• Pulmonary Blood Clots
• Abdominal Pain
• Heart Disease
• Infections
• Disease
• Bone Abnormalities

We offer same-day appointments with a member of the Nuclear Medicine team, who have over 50 years of combined experience.

Results are guaranteed to your physician within 24 hours of your visit. Our studies are read by a board-certified radiologist with Northshore Imaging Associates, LLC, and are available to your physician in a CD format upon request.
