Yes and no. The Gamma Camera uses Gamma Radiation to see through dense tissue in order to pick up irregularities withing the body. Letting your body be willingly assaulted with Gamma Radiation would not be good in the long run. These procedures are done carefully and all risks are outweighed by the benefits. In conclusion, if you get scanned using this machinery at the doctor, you will be fine. Long and sustaining exposure will undoubtedly kill you, or cause you great harm.
