Natrii fluoridum (18F) is a radioactive compound used in medical imaging, particularly in positron emission tomography (PET). It is used to detect bone abnormalities, such as bone metastases, by highlighting areas of increased metabolic activity.

The substance is administered intravenously and accumulates in areas of active bone formation, providing detailed images of the skeleton. It is a valuable tool in diagnosing and monitoring cancer and other bone conditions.

Side effects are rare but may include allergic reactions or discomfort at the injection site. As a radioactive compound, its use is strictly controlled and performed only under the supervision of a specialist.

Consult your doctor for detailed information about the procedure and to understand the benefits and risks associated with Natrii fluoridum (18F).
