im applying for the nuclear medicine strand of MRS at newcastle uni. It involves combining radioisotopes with regular pharmaceuticals and injecting them into the patient, then using a scanner to detect the radiation and make an image out of it, then using that image to help diagnose a patient.
Diagnostic radiography involves using xrays to diagnose a condition.
Radiation therapy involves using radiation to treat diseases (cancer etc)
