Nuclear Medicine Review/Update

• Purpose:
  

  The purpose of the program is to provide a compact review and update of the science principles involved in Nuclear Medicine Technology. In order to comprehend the rationale behind Nuclear Medicine's rapidly changing technology, one often wishes a second understanding of "the basics".
  
  This program serves several purposes:
  
  • IT SERVES AS the minimum of fifteen (15) contact hours of coursework in each of the following areas: radiopharmacy, nuclear medicine instrumentation and radiation safety, FOR THE INDIVIDUAL PREPARING TO TAKE THE BOARD EXAMINATION BY THE NUCLEAR MEDICINE TECHNOLOGY CERTIFICATION BOARD (NMTCB). This course fulfills the required contact hours for Alternate Eligibility and PET applicants by the NMTCB. It is not intended to be an all encompassing course in preparation for the board. More in depth preparation will be needed through other resources.
  • It has proven useful to those student Nuclear Medicine Technologists who are preparing for other registry or licensing examinations.

  • It has proven useful to those individuals who are in an ADMINISTRATIVE CAPACITY and need a comprehensive understanding or overview of a nuclear medicine program.
  • A total review and update by the experienced nuclear medicine technologists who wishes to be brought up-to-date in their chosen profession.
