Nuclear medicine imaging uses radionuclides or radioisotopes.
Radionuclide scan
- FSN: Radionuclide scan of X (procedure)
- PT: Radionuclide scan of X
- SYN: Radioisotope scan of X
For example,

- FSN: Radionuclide scan of peritoneal cavity (procedure)
- PT: Radionuclide scan of peritoneal cavity
- SYN: Radioisotope scan of peritoneal cavity
Radionuclide scan using isotopes (with other agents)
- FSN: Radionuclide scan of X using Y (procedure)
- PT: Radionuclide scan of X using Y
- SYN: Radioisotope scan of X using Y
For example,

- FSN: Radionuclide scan of perfusion of liver using technetium Tc^99m^ aggregated albumin (procedure)
- PT: Radionuclide scan of perfusion of liver using technetium Tc^99m^ aggregated albumin
- SYN: Radioisotope scan of perfusion of liver using technetium Tc^99m^ aggregated albumin
