Department of Nuclear Medicine and Clinical Imaging Diagnostics
Specialized in: nuclear medicine, clinical imaging diagnostics About the Department of Nuclear Medicine and Clinical Imaging Diagnostics at University Hospital Tuebingen
The Department of Nuclear Medicine and Clinical Imaging Diagnostics at the University Hospital Tuebingen offers the full range of radioisotope diagnostics and treatment of various diseases. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Christian la Fougère.
Both classical diagnostic methods, for example, scintigraphy, SPECT and innovative hybrid techniques, for example, PET-CT, PET-MRT, SPECT-CT are available in the department, which allow to detect metabolic changes at the early stages of various diseases, as well as their localization in the human body. In addition, the department's doctors specialize in radiotherapy for the treatment of oncopathologies.
The diagnostic range of the department covers:
- Scintigraphy
- Osteoscintigraphy (skeleton scintigraphy)
- Thyroid scintigraphy
- Preoperative marking of the sentinel lymph nodes
- Renal scintigraphy
- Scintigraphy in inflammatory processes
- Ventilation/perfusion lung scintigraphy
- Myocardial scintigraphy
- Brain scintigraphy (DaTSCAN)
- Liver scintigraphy
- Parathyroid scintigraphy
- Scintigraphy for the determination of the degree of gastric emptying
- Scintigraphy for the determination of the hemorrhage source
- Lymphoscintigraphy
- SPECT-CT
- PET-MRI
- PET-CT
- Thyroid diagnostics (within the specialized outpatient clinic)
- Ultrasound examinations
- PET-CT
- Fine-needle aspiration biopsy
- Other diagnostic methods
