Nuclear Medicine, Associate of Applied Science
A Nuclear Medicine technologist is the health professional responsible for performing nuclear medicine examinations that assist the physician in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. The trained nuclear medicine technologist prepares and administers radiopharmaceuticals and performs patient imaging procedures using radiation detection devices. Technologists provide data analysis and patient information to the physician. The nuclear medicine technologist may be employed in hospitals, clinics, imaging centers, physician's offices, education, research and manufacturing. Graduates of the program may be eligible for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) examination f
