Nuclear cardiovascular studies are being introduced in almost every Nuclear Medicine Department. The number of studies performed per week is increasing very rapidly. The physical characteristics including the specific gamma ray constant for radionuclides used in cardiovascular studies are listed. The radiation dose estimates to different organs of a patient administered with 201Tl and 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals are shown. The radiation levels measured around patients administered with 201Tl chloride, 99mTc HSA (human serum albumin), and 99mTc-MDP (methylene diphosphonate) are within the permissible limits. Radiation doses to different organs from nuclear cardiovascular studies are less than those associated with fluoroscopy, particularly cardiac catheterization. However, the gonadal doses received from cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography are considerably lower than nuclear cardiovascular studies.
几乎每个核医学科都在引入核心血管研究。每周进行的研究数量增长非常迅速。列出了心血管研究中使用的放射性核素的物理特性，包括比γ射线常数。显示了给予患者201Tl和99mTc放射性药物后对不同器官的辐射剂量估计。在接受氯化201Tl、99mTc HSA（人血清白蛋白）和99mTc-MDP（亚甲基二膦酸盐）的患者周围测量的辐射水平在允许范围内。核心血管研究对不同器官的辐射剂量低于与荧光透视相关的剂量，尤其是心脏导管插入术。然而，心脏导管插入术和心血管造影术所接受的性腺剂量远低于核心血管研究。
