Course Summary
Nuclear Medicine requires a detailed knowledge of anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, the specialised equipment used to measure and image radioactivity, radiation safety including quality assurance and quality control, and most importantly, patient care. This course builds on the fundamental theories introduced in Medical Radiation 1 and 2 and will develop your knowledge of the underpinning theory applicable to Nuclear Medicine practice. This course will develop your skills in the application of knowledge to practice for various anatomical sites and physiological pathways. At this level it is expected that you will engage with the literature base to complement your development.
