Gamma Emission Tracer

Molecular classification: Radiopharmaceutical, Diagnostic agent

Overview

A gamma emission tracer is a radiolabeled molecule designed for use in nuclear medicine diagnostics or scientific research that emits detectable levels of high-energy electromagnetic radiation ('gamma rays') upon radioactive decay. It is used to visualize physiological processes, diagnose diseases, or monitor environmental conditions.

Mechanism of action

Gamma emission tracer accumulates in specific organs or tissues and emits gamma photons, which are detected by external devices (gamma cameras/SPECT) to visualize the distribution and concentration of the tracer.
