Myocardial perfusion test radiotracer dosage.

Hello, I was wondering what the excepted average dosages for radiotracer given any nuclear cardio perfusion stress test? Anyone has had it done and knows what they were given. My doctor may be sending me and said that I should research if I want to. Thank you Jen

    That's a great question and one I had to research as well.
    Unfortunately, there are many variables when it comes to radiotracers.
    I thought I'd share this article that may provide some helpful information:

    I applaud you on researching/asking questions before a possible procedure.
    Wishing you all the best, Doreen (Team Member)
