This course provides hands-on clinical experience in the application of nuclear medicine and computed tomography in diagnostic and therapeutic settings. Students will rotate through clinical departments, gaining practical skills in patient preparation, radiopharmaceutical administration, imaging acquisition, and post-processing techniques. Emphasis is placed on integrating NM and CT modalities in hybrid imaging systems (e.g., PET/CT, SPECT/CT) for accurate diagnosis and treatment monitoring.
Key areas of focus include quality control, radiation safety, dosimetry, and patient care protocols. Students will engage in supervised practice to interpret clinical cases, collaborate with healthcare professionals, and develop effective communication skills in multidisciplinary settings.
The course aims to bridge theoretical knowledge with clinical practice, fostering competence and confidence for professional roles in radiologic and nuclear medicine environments.
