A member asked:
Is it necessary for kids under 18 to maintain distance for 24 hours from someone who has done isotope bone scan?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Although the radioisotope is in your system for 2 days, only a tracer dose was given and radioactivity strength is no more than a simple X-Ray. This is quite different than being given radioactive iodine to treat hyperthyroidism, however.
