Die Nuklearmedizin ist ein medizinisches Fachgebiet, das die moderne Diagnostik und Behandlung von Krebserkrankungen mit Hilfe von Radiopharmaka, den ursprünglichen Radiotracern (mit einem radioaktiven Isotop verbundene Arzneimittel), ermöglicht. Radiopharmazeutika gelten als eine besondere Gruppe von Arzneimitteln und ihre Herstellung und Verwendung wird durch eine Reihe von Richtlinien geregelt, die von den einzelnen Mitgliedsstaaten verabschiedet wurden. Die bei diagnostischen Untersuchungen verwendeten Radiopharmazeutika werden in sehr geringen Dosen verabreicht. Daher haben sie im Allgemeinen keine pharmakologische Wirkung, keine Nebenwirkungen oder schwerwiegenden unerwünschten Wirkungen. Im Gegensatz dazu wird bei nuklearmedizinischen Verfahren ein radioaktives Material, ein so genanntes Radiopharmakon oder Radiotracer, verwendet, das in die Blutbahn injiziert, geschluckt oder als Gas eingeatmet wird. Dieses radioaktive Material reichert sich in dem zu untersuchenden Organ oder Körperbereich an, wo es eine geringe Energiemenge in Form von Gammastrahlen abgibt. Spezielle Kameras erkennen diese Energie und erstellen mit Hilfe eines Computers Bilder, die Details über die Struktur und Funktion von Organen und Geweben in Ihrem Körper liefern.

This book analyzes the relationship between Peronism and the Argentine working class from the foundation of the Peronist movement in the mid 1940s to the overthrow of Peron's widow in 1976. It presents an account of such crucial issues as the role of the Peronist union bureaucracy and the impact of the Peronist ideology on workers. Drawing on a variety of untapped sources, Daniel James confronts many of the dominant myths that have surrounded the movement. He argues that its role in containing working-class militancy cannot be explained solely in terms of manipulation, corruption, or union gangsterism.
