Ridiculous! NO!
Normally, no. But if a person badly radiation poisoned, then yes
There are a few scans – like certain bone scans – that require the patient to be injected with active nuclear radio-active agents. For a few days they – their body – will be a little radioactive, and they are supposed to stay away from very vulnerable people, like pregnant women and children. It is not considered to be hazardous to most people, and the short half life of the material means that the radiation level quickly decreases to a harmless level.
