  • Maintain accurate patient records, including patient history, test results, and imaging reports, in compliance with hospital or facility protocols.
Equipment Maintenance and Safety:
  • Perform routine maintenance and calibration of nuclear medicine imaging equipment, ensuring proper function and safety.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues related to imaging equipment or radiopharmaceuticals.

  • Monitor and manage radiation exposure to patients, ensuring compliance with regulatory bodies such as the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and Radiation Safety Office (RSO).
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of safety standards and best practices in radiation protection.
Collaboration with Healthcare Team:
  • 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.
Patient Care and Follow-up:
  • Provide post-procedure care instructions to patients, including guidance on hydration or any side effects related to the radiopharmaceutical.
  • Monitor patients during recovery and assist with any immediate medical concerns following the procedure.
  • Offer information to patients regarding any follow-up imaging or treatment required based on their results.
