  • @219mlc In short, NucMed Technologist will need to know a lot of physiology (ie how body functions, pharmacology, etc) and some anatomy, where as, being a radiographer, you need to know your anatomy really well and technique in positioning the patient is very important.

    So you if love to understand "how" things work, become a NMT, if you good at remembering stuff do radiography.

    Check the job outlook for NMT! In Aus, it's pretty bad at moment, but I heard its worst in US

  • In nuclear medicine, the patient is injected with a small amount of radioactive tracer with total exposure being less or equal to a regular chest x-ray. Also, since those tracers have a short half-life, they will disappear from the body within hours.

  • I'm debating either going to school for nuclear medicine technician or for radiology technician.. I'm 23 and currently have an Associates in computer aided drafting and design.. Danny advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated. :-) good video by the way

  • Im a Nuc Med student! I really like how you explained it!

  • Whats your salary like with 15 years experience?
