RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Nuclear Cardiology Training JF Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology JO J. Nucl. Med. Technol. FD Society of Nuclear Medicine SP 55 OP 58 VO 24 IS 1 A1 Crawford, Elpida S. A1 Eckdahl, Jeanne M. YR 1996 UL http://tech.snmjournals.org/content/24/1/55.abstract AB Objective: The Cardiovascular Technologist Working Group of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology and the Society of Nuclear Medicine-Technologist Section are interested in working to improve the skills of technologists performing nuclear cardiology by developing guidelines for training. Methods: A survey was sent to NMT educational programs to obtain information on the current status of student training. Results: While related course work is being covered, the depth is hard to assess. Clinical hours of experience vary greatly. Conclusion: Due to the extensive scope of nuclear cardiology and the amount of attention to technical detail required, training guidelines are warranted.
