What do Nuclear Medicine Radiologic Technologists do?
Nuclear medicine technologists prepare and administer radioactive drugs called radiopharmaceuticals to patients for diagnostic imaging and treatment.
They operate specialized equipment, such as gamma cameras and PET scanners, to create images that reveal how organs function, helping diagnose and treat conditions such as cancer and heart disease.
A key part of their role involves patient preparation, administering the radioactive drugs, ensuring radiation safety protocols are followed, and providing images and data for physician interpretation.
What they do
Patient Care: Explaining the procedure to patients, answering questions, and ensuring their comfort and safety during the process.
Radiopharmaceutical Handling: Preparing, calculating dosages, and safely administering radioactive drugs to patients for diagnostic scans or therapeutic procedures.
Imaging Procedures: Operating specialized imaging equipment like gamma cameras, PET, and SPECT scanners to produce images of the body’s internal structures and functions.
Radiation Safety: Implementing and maintaining strict radiation safety protocols to protect themselves, patients, and other staff from unnecessary exposure.
Image and Data Management: Reviewing, processing, and manipulating digital images, and providing the resulting data for physicians to use in diagnoses and treatment plans.
Equipment Maintenance: Maintaining and calibrating imaging and monitoring equipment to ensure they function correctly and produce high-quality images.
Assess Organ Function: They provide images that reveal how organs, such as the brain, heart, and lungs, are functioning, not just their anatomical structure.
Diagnose Conditions: They help diagnose a wide range of medical conditions, such as heart disease, neurological disorders, hormonal imbalances, and various types of cancer.
Monitor Treatment: They monitor disease progression and the effectiveness of cancer treatments by tracking the distribution of radiopharmaceuticals in the body.
