Im learning for my exam, and now I finally understand everything, thank you so much❤

Thanks for your video. It is very easy to understand the subject. One of my close relative recently had an heart attack and two main blood stream veins out of 3 identified as block after angiography. One is 100%and another is 80% blockage. Doctor suggested to check out the organs functionality prior to remove the block either bypass surgery or angioplasty. The method to identify the organ functionality is by scanning nuclear medicine. If do you have deep understanding to do the scanning on heart connected organs, can you make a useful video, we would appreciate you in advance for your efforts.

Plz can you answer my question i am currently doing my masters in physics can i do my research in nuclear medicine???

[JohnMChew]

I'm concerned.
I've had 15 chest xrays (1 front, 1 side view) and 2 ct scans, 1 chest and 1 abdomin, over the past 3 months.
I'm concerned that I have been exposed to too much radiation.
This is on top of imaging earlier in 2023, and nnumerous chest xrays in 2020. Predominantly at the e/r with chest pain.
Any professionals have any thoughts on my concern.
Only serious responses please
