Nuclear medicine usage on the rise in Singapore

Posted on by

SINGAPORE: Nuclear medicine is increasingly being used since it was first introduced in Singapore one and a half years ago.

Commonly used in tandem with advanced scanning techniques like the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan at many hospitals here, nuclear medicine relies on the use of radioactive elements in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

There are currently 10 types of nuclear medicine worldwide with 50 new types under development.Raffles Hospital aims to use new types of nuclear medicine to diagnose diseases like heart diseases.

At Raffles Hospital, each scan costs S$2,000. Patients can use their Medisave to pay for the scans and can claim up to S$600 each year.

Doctors at the hospital have seen a 40 per cent increase in the number of patients who are treated using nuclear medicine and these doctors say using nuclear medicine is 80 per cent more accurate than traditional biopsies.

"We are able to delve into the molecular nature so that means we are able to pick up as small as 0.4, 0.5 cm in detecting cancer at an earlier stage as compared to other type of imaging scans," said Dr Andrew Tan, a specialist on nuclear medicine at Raffles Hospital.

SINGAPORE: Nuclear medicine is increasingly being used since it was first introduced in Singapore one and a half years ago. It relies on the use of radioactive elements in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, and is commonly used in tandem with advanced scanning techniques such as the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or CT scan at many hospitals in the country.

Doctors at Raffles Hospital have seen a 40 per cent increase in the number of patients treated using nuclear medicine. These doctors added that using nuclear medicine is 80 per cent more accurate than traditional biopsies.

Dr Andrew Tan, a nuclear medicine specialist at Raffles Hospital, said: "With this type of scan, we are able to delve into molecular structure, so that means we are able to detect tumours as small as 0.4 or 0.5 centimetres and diagnose cancer at an earlier stage as compared to other types of imaging scans."

Local sports medicine pioneer Leslie Bodnar dies at 98

Posted on by

From Notre Dame Press Release:

Dr. Leslie Bodnar, a widely-respected sports medicine pioneer who worked with University of Notre Dame student-athletes for nearly four decades, died this morning in South Bend. He was 98.

Upon completion of his residency, he established his private practice of orthopedic surgery in South Bend in 1947. That practice evolved into what is now known as the South Bend Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine Clinic.

In 1949, Bodnar joined the staff of the athletics department at Notre Dame as orthopedic surgeon for student-athletes, a position he held until 1985. He served as director of sports medicine for the University from 1976-85, held the title of team physician during that period and was on teaching faculty at its extension of the Indiana University School of Medicine. He continued as a senior consultant for Irish athletics for a period after 1985.

Bodnar is a founding member of the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine, a fellow of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the American College of Surgeons and the American College of Sports Medicine, among other professional memberships.

After 52 years, Bodnar retired from private practice and has dedicated his time to philanthropic pursuits, serving as pro bono orthopedic consultant to the Chapin Street Health Center and donating the funds for exam rooms at the Sister Maura Brannick Health Center, both in South Bend.

Beginning nearly 60 years ago, Bodnar has conducted numerous sports medicine conferences around the country for coaches and athletic trainers, giving seminal presentations that established precedent and practice for the field of orthopedic surgery. His leadership and vision were significant factors toward the original formalization of relationships between professional orthopedic and national athletic entities such as the AOSSM and the U.S. Olympic Committee.

He earned his Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Illinois in 1939 and completed his M.D. there two years later. Charity Hospital in New Orleans functioned as the site for both his medical internship (1941-42) and surgical orthopedic residency (1942-43; 1946-47). From 1943-46, Bodnar served as an orthopedic surgeon in the United States Army.

Bodnar is the author of two books, Carnie (2010) and Sports Medicine, Notre Dame (2014).

With his late wife Bunny, he enjoyed 53 years of marriage, nine children and more than two dozen grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
