    • Work closely with nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, and other healthcare professionals to ensure the proper execution of imaging procedures.
    • Communicate effectively with the medical team to discuss patient conditions and help interpret diagnostic images.
    • Participate in multidisciplinary team meetings to review cases, discuss treatment plans, and provide input based on imaging results.
