Abstract

SNMMI-TS Advocacy Committee would now like to answer the following questions and cast a level of opinion on Nuclear Medicine Technologists performing theranostics-therapy clinical work: What training does a nuclear medicine technologist (NMT) need to participate and complete theranostics? What does the SNMMI-TS Advocacy Committee feel are important initiatives to have NMTs fully engaged in theranostics today and in the long-term?
