Read the following definitions of Medical Informatics.
Biomedical informatics / Medical informatics: "Biomedical Informatics is an emerging discipline that has been defined as the study, invention, and implementation of structures and algorithms to improve communication, understanding and management of medical information.
Bioinformatics is the application of computer technology to the management and analysis of biological data. The result is that computers are being used to gather, store, analyse and merge biological data.(EBI - 2can resource)

Fill in the blanks-43.Nuclear Medicine Imaging techniques give doctors another
way to look inside the human body. The techniques combine the use of________,_________ and __________substances.
44.These techniques include: • ________________________________________________• Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) • ________________________________________________ • ________________________________________________ 45.How is nuclear medicine imaging useful?
http://health.howstuffworks.com/nuclear-medicine.htm
46. Read here about PET , record notes on your answer sheet indicating the specific views PET provides within the body.
PET provides images of blood flow or other biochemical functions, depending upon the type of molecule that is radioactively tagged. For example, PET can show images of glucose metabolism in the brain, or rapid changes in activity in various areas of the body. However, there are few PET centers in the country because they must be located near a particle accelerator device that produces the short-lived radioisotopes used in the technique.
