A bone scan or also known as bone scintigraphy or skeletal scintigraphy, is a nuclear medicine imaging technique of the bones. It helps evaluate and diagnose the difference of the bone diseases and conditions including fractures, infection and cancer, using minor amounts of radioactive materials known as radiotracers that are commonly injected into the bloodstream, swallowed or inhaled.
Rarely, some allergic reactions of the tracer (radiotracer) can appear. Most of the tracer will get rid of from your body through the urine or stool in the next day or two. It’s very important to flush the toilet immediately and wash the hands with water and soap.
The amount of radiation is very small and it’s not presents risk to the people that come in contact with you.
There is possibly a minor risk of damaging the cells or the tissue it self, from being exposed to any radiation, including the same low level radiation released by the tracer.
