NMT 201Nuclear Medicine Theory I –4
This is an introductory course in the fundamental concepts of nuclear medicine. This course is a study of the basic sciences that apply to nuclear medicine. Topics include nuclear physics, mathematics, instrumentation, radiation biology and nuclear medicine procedures. Prerequisite: acceptance into Nuclear Medicine Technology program.
This course is designed to build on the knowledge gained in NMT 201. Topics covered in this course include radiation safety, radiopharmacy and more advanced nuclear medicine procedures. Prerequisite: C or better in NMT 201.
This course discusses innovations and advances in nuclear medicine. This course provides a comprehensive review of topics covered throughout the year in order to prepare the students for the national registry examination. Prerequisite: C or better in NMT 202.
This course is designed to introduce the beginner student to the profession of nuclear medicine technology. Practicum takes place at the clinical affiliates. Students learn by observing and assisting a nuclear medicine technologist in the performance of nuclear medicine imaging and associated tasks. Various clinical competencies and five nuclear medicine procedure competencies are required in this course. Prerequisite: acceptance into Nuclear Medicine Technology program.
The student will continue to work toward demonstrating competencies in the more frequently performed nuclear medicine studies. They will observe and assist the technologist in the performance of complicated studies. Various clinical competencies and ten nuclear medicine procedure competencies are required for this course. Prerequisite: B or better in NMT 211.
This final session of practical learning allows the students to fine tune their skills and apply all they have learned in NM Theory. Students are expected to be able to perform most studies with limited supervision. Various clinical competencies and ten nuclear medicine procedure competencies are required for this course. Prerequisite: B or better in NMT 212.
