45 Hour Continuing Education Course
Radiopharmacy (15 hours)
This radiopharmacy curriculum builds a strong foundation in radiopharmaceutical science — from production and decay principles to preparation, quality control, biodistribution, and clinical application. Students will gain a deep understanding of regulatory oversight, safe handling, and proper selection of diagnostic and therapeutic agents — including pediatric dosing, ALARA practices, troubleshooting, and investigational use — to ensure competent, compliant, and patient-centered practice in nuclear medicine.
Instrumentation (15 hours)
This imaging instrumentation module provides a comprehensive understanding of gamma camera and hybrid PET/CT system operation, image acquisition, and quality control. Students will gain competency in system components, collimator selection, energy window optimization, attenuation correction, filter and reconstruction principles, and detection physics — while mastering artifact recognition, system calibration, and regulatory QC/QA expectations required for safe, high-quality clinical imaging.
Radiation Safety (15 hours)
This radiation safety module prepares learners to confidently apply ALARA principles, interpret exposure data, and comply with NRC regulatory standards in a clinical setting. Students will master contamination control, dosimetry monitoring, emergency response, waste management, shielding design, and patient release guidance — ensuring full competence in both protection of the public and safe technologist practice during NRC inspections and daily nuclear medicine operations.
