* Nuclear cardiology: The use of nuclear medicine to visualize the uptake of an isotope by the heart using radioactive sources.

* Nuclear technology, applications of nuclear energy including nuclear power, nuclear medicine, and nuclear weapons

Management began liquidating the organization, but due to shareholder issues, instead acquired Nuclear Consultants, Inc., a nuclear medicine or nuclear industry services organization ( unclear ), and renamed the combined company " Nuclear Corporation of America, Inc ."

* Nuclear medicine-The laboratory's nuclear medicine research is focused on the development of improved reactor production and processing methods to provide medical radioisotopes, the development of new radionuclide generator systems, the design and evaluation of new radiopharmaceuticals for applications in nuclear medicine and oncology.

Research and promotion of civil uses of radioactive materials, such as for nuclear non-destructive testing, nuclear medicine, and nuclear power, was split into the Office of Nuclear Energy, Science & Technology within ERDA by the same act.

Nuclear medicine encompasses both diagnostic imaging and treatment of disease, and may also be referred to as molecular medicine or molecular imaging & therapeutics.

Nuclear medicine uses certain properties of isotopes and the energetic particles emitted from radioactive material to diagnose or treat various pathology.

Nuclear medicine is a medical specialty involving the application of radioactive substances in the diagnosis and treatment of disease.

Nuclear medicine, in a sense, is " radiology done inside out " or " endo-radiology " because it records radiation emitting from within the body rather than radiation that is generated by external sources like X-rays.

Nuclear medicine is a possible specialty for adapting to the new discipline of molecular medicine, because of its emphasis on function and its utilization of imaging agents that are specific for a particular disease process.

Nuclear medicine tests differ from most other imaging modalities in that diagnostic tests primarily show the physiological function of the system being investigated as opposed to traditional anatomical imaging such as CT or MRI.

Nuclear medicine imaging studies are generally more organ or tissue specific ( e. g.: lungs scan, heart scan, bone scan, brain scan, etc.

Nuclear blackmail, typically by a supervillain rather than a state, has been frequently employed as a plot device in spy fiction and action films.

Nuclear families typically center on a married couple, but not always ; the nuclear family may have any number of children.

Nuclear power plants typically have high capital costs, but low direct fuel costs ( with much of the costs of fuel extraction, processing, use and long term storage externalized ).

Police that do carry firearms regularly are typically those guarding national ports of entry, those engaged with diplomatic security, Royal Protection officers or the Civil Nuclear Constabulary.

Nuclear pharmacists undergo additional training specific to handling radioactive materials, and unlike in community and hospital pharmacies, nuclear pharmacists typically do not interact directly with patients.

* Nuclear receptor, a class of receptor proteins in the cell, typically regulating transcription.

Nuclear Free Zones typically do not prohibit other nuclear technologies such as cyclotrons used in particle physics.

Rare isotopes can be produced artificially in research facilities like ISOLDE ( at CERN, the European Center for Nuclear Research, in Geneva ) or Triumph ( Canada ) by irradiating determined targets with energetic beams ( typically protons or deuterons ).

Nuclear genome size is typically measured in eukaryotes using either densitometric measurements of Feulgen-stained nuclei ( previously using specialized densitometers, now more commonly using computerized image analysis ) or flow cytometry.

* Nuclear pile, early term for a nuclear reactor, typically one constructed of graphite

Nuclear strategy involves the development of doctrines and strategies for the production and use of nuclear weapons.

Nuclear technology is technology that involves the reactions of atomic nuclei.

An example is the Nuclear Cities Initiative ( NCI ), a joint effort of the United States National Nuclear Security Administration and Minatom, which involves in part the cities of Sarov, Snezhinsk, and Zheleznogorsk.

Nuclear magnetic resonance ( NMR ) is an important example in the dynamics of two-state systems because it is involves the exact solution to a time dependent Hamiltonian.

( The blue ' ionization | pre-ionisation ' curve applies to certain types of Nuclear weapon design | thermonuclear weapon, where gamma ray | gamma and x-ray s from the primary fission stage Ionization | ionise the atmosphere and make it electrically conductive before the main pulse from the thermonuclear stage.

The term ‘ Physical Agents ’ refers to ionising and non-ionising electromagnetic radiations, static electric and magnetic fields, ultrasound, laser light and any other Physical Agent associated with medical e. g., x-rays in computerised tomography ( CT ), gamma rays / radionuclides in Nuclear Medicine, magnetic fields and radio-frequencies in Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( MRI ), ultrasound in Ultrasound Imaging and Doppler measurements etc.

* Nuclear reactors produce gamma radiation and neutron radiation which can affect sensor and control circuits in nuclear power plants.

Nuclear logs include density logs and neutron logs, as well as gamma ray logs which are used for correlation.

Nuclear logging was initially developed to measure the natural gamma radiation emitted by underground formations.

* Nuclear reactions due to cosmic rays.

Nuclear spallation occurs naturally in earth's atmosphere owing to the impacts of cosmic rays, and also on the surfaces of bodies in space such as meteorites and the moon.
