Nuclear Medicine

At Ascires, we combine state-of-the-art technology with over 25 years of experience to provide more accurate, faster and minimally invasive diagnoses. We were pioneers in Nuclear Medicine in Spain and have over 20 years of experience in PET-CT technology.

Our Nuclear Medicine Service in Valencia features the most advanced digital PET-CT and SPECT-CT equipment, integrating artificial intelligence to achieve higher diagnostic quality. This technology allows tests to be completed in less time, produces extremely precise images (even in challenging cases), and enables safer, less invasive surgeries with better clinical outcomes.

In addition, our portable probes and gamma cameras guide the surgical team in real time, improving the safety and effectiveness of procedures.

Our team consists of nuclear medicine physicians, specialists in radiopharmacy, bioengineering, medical physics, and specialised nursing, who work together to carefully manage every detail of the diagnostic and therapeutic process.

Commitment to the Patient

The latest advances in Nuclear Medicine in Valencia at your fingertips

In-house Radiopharmacy Unit (Phase 2 of opening)

We ensure the highest quality in the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals, which is essential for your safety and for obtaining reliable results.

High-Resolution Digital PET-CT

Detects cancer at very early stages, even when no changes are visible on other imaging tests. Our high-end digital PET-CT offers greater resolution and faster scan times, with a lower radiation dose for patients compared to conventional PET-CT scanners.

SPECT-CT

Combines functional and anatomical imaging to provide sharper images and enable more accurate diagnoses in oncology, neurology, cardiology, urology, and traumatology.

Metabolic and Theragnostic Therapy (Phase 2 of opening)

Theragnosis combines a pair of radiopharmaceuticals for both diagnosis and treatment, allowing selective and safe targeting of cells in certain types of tumours. This approach lets us treat what we see and see what we treat, enabling a personalised decision on whether a patient is suitable for the therapy

Patient-Centred Safe Facilities

The Nuclear Medicine Unit at Hospital Ascires features safe and comfortable facilities designed to prioritise your wellbeing. Our professional, approachable, and dedicated team supports you at every step to ensure a safe and stress-free experience.

Real-Time Radioguided Surgery (Phase 2 of opening)

We guide the surgeon during procedures using detection probes and cameras, improving precision and reducing surgical risk.

Drop-IN Probes for Robotic Surgery (Phase 2 of opening)

Enhanced precision in minimally invasive or robotic surgery thanks to their small size, flexibility, and direct control. This high-end technology accurately detects, in real time, tissues that absorb the radiopharmaceutical.

Frequently Asked Questions about Nuclear Medicine in Valencia

What is Nuclear Medicine and how does it differ from other imaging tests?
When should I go to Nuclear Medicine?
