The JRCNMT held its spring meeting April 4–5 in Oklahoma City, OK. Programs undergoing review were published in the March 2008 issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology. A report on the spring meeting will be published in the September issue.

ANNUAL JRCNMT WORKSHOP

The annual JRCNMT workshop will be held June 14 as part of the Educator's Forum at the SNM Annual Meeting in New Orleans, LA.

LIST OF ACCREDITED NUCLEAR MEDICINE TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS

An updated list of accredited nuclear medicine technology programs follows. The list is updated after each board meeting. The list is also available online at www.jrcnmt.org.

The directory of accredited programs below identifies those programs that have met or exceeded the Essentials and Guidelines for an Accredited Educational Program for the Nuclear Medicine Technologist. These programs have voluntarily undergone a peer review process established by the JRCNMT. Programmatic accreditation by the JRCNMT provides assurance to applicants that the program provides education and training based on professional standards.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS

Length

The professional portion of the program is one to two years in length. Institutions offering accredited programs may provide an integrated educational sequence leading to an associate or baccalaureate degree over a period of two or four years.

Programs vary in length depending on the admission criteria. Some programs admit students directly from high school; others require prior education for entrance. The attached list identifies the entrance requirements for each program: “1” indicates programs that require applicants to possess a high school diploma or equivalent, “2” indicates programs that require applicants to have some postsecondary academic courses, “3” indicates programs that require applicants to have prior training in an allied health profession such as radiologic technology, medical technology, or nursing, and “4” indicates programs that require applicants to have a baccalaureate degree with specific postsecondary courses.

Prerequisites

Applicants for admission must have graduated from high school or the equivalent and have acquired postsecondary competencies in human anatomy and physiology, physics, algebra, medical terminology, computer applications, oral and written communications, and general chemistry.

Curriculum

The curriculum includes methods of patient care, statistics, nuclear medicine/radiation physics, radiation biology, radiation safety and protection, radionuclide chemistry and radiopharmacy, nuclear instrumentation, positron emission tomography (PET), computer applications for nuclear medicine, diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging and nonimaging in vivo and in vitro procedures, immunology as related to nuclear medicine, radionuclide therapy, and quality control and quality assurance.

Standards

The Essentials are minimum educational standards adopted by the collaborating organizations. Each new program is assessed in accordance with the Essentials, and accredited programs are periodically reviewed to determine whether they remain in substantial compliance. The Essentials and Guidelines publication is available upon written request from the JRCNMT or at www.jrcnmt.org.

Requests for information on program accreditation, including the Essentials, preparing the self-study report, and arranging a site visit, may be addressed to:
