MODEL RELEASED. Heart gamma scanning. View of a technician performing a gamma scan of a patient's heart. Several views of the heart are seen on the monitor at lower right. The heart muscle appears as a purple/orange ring or horseshoe shape,depending on the angle of the scan. The heart's chambers appear black or dark blue at the centre of the rings or horseshoes. Gamma scanning is a technique in which a radioactive chemical is injected into the area to be studied,and its emissions detected by a sensitive camera. Here,the heart's health is being monitored to check for any adverse effects of a new drug treatment for AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) | |
