    2. We use radioactive material for this test. The low dose radioactivity is safe.

    3. Through the natural process of radioactive decay, the small amount of radiotracer in your body will lose its radioactivity over time. It may also pass out of your body through your urine or stool during the first few hours or days following the test.

    4. On the day of the examination, people who accompany you will receive low dose radiation, but this radiation dose is small and will cause no risk.

    5. You can eat and drink as usual.

    6. Remove metallic accessories or jewelry before exam or leave them at home.
