Research Notes on Lung Scan
A lung scan is a procedure that uses a radioactive chemical to look at your lungs. The chemical is called a radiotracer. Although the thought of radioactive material in the body may be scary, this substance is very safe. The amount of radiation it gives off is slight. It is less than the amount used for a standard chest X-ray.
