Course | | Description |
Introduction to Nuclear Medicine | | Nuclear medicine is the branch of medical imaging that uses the nuclear properties of matter in the diagnosis of pathology. While many imaging modalities show anatomy, nuclear medicine shows physiological function. Through the use of radionuclides or radiopharmaceuticals, nuclear medicine also can be used to treat disease or provide pain relief. Carole South-Winter, M.Ed., R.T.(R), CNMT, introduces the discoverers of nuclear medicine and its evolution, and also compares it with other types of imaging. |
Basic Introduction to Nuclear Medicine | | This course offers a basic introduction into the principles and practice of Nuclear Medicine. The course aims at professionals in the field of diagnostic imaging and radiation therapy, who have little or no knowledge about the discipline of Nuclear Medicine. In this course the student will learn the differences between radionuclide imaging and other diagnostic imaging modalities, learn about radiopharmaceuticals, and nuclear medicine procedures. |
Bone Scintigraphy | | In this course the theory and practice of the Nuclear Medicine procedure “Bone Scintigraphy” will be discussed. This course will also review bone physiology, the bone scintigraphy procedure, the radiopharmaceuticals utilized, and the strengths and limitations of the procedure. |
Dynamic Renography | | This course offers an in depth reconnaissance of a nuclear medicine examination of the kidneys: dynamic renography. The course also deals with the relevant anatomy, fetal development and physiology of the kidneys, and with some concepts from nephrology. The course is primarily intended as continuous education for professionals in the field of diagnostic imaging. Other (health care) professionals can also take this course, and use it to deepen their understanding of this nuclear medicine procedure. |

NM0101T - Axis/Irix Certification Exam | | This module contains ONLY the certification exam for eLearning course NM0101 Axis/Irix. If you have not completed this eLearning course do not proceed. |
NM0103 - Atlas Workstation Flexible Training Delivery Lectures | | This eLearning course covers the Altas Workstation. This eLearning course will take approximately 1.5 hours to complete. |
NM9111 - Nuclear Fundamentals | | This eLearning course discusses the "fundamentals" of Nuclear Medical Imaging. This eLearning course will take approximately 2 hours to complete. |
NM9111T - Nuclear Fundamentals Certification Exam | | This module contains ONLY the certification exam for the NM9111:Nuclear Fundamentals eLearning course. If you have not already completed this eLearning course, do not proceed. |
Philips QT/QTc Interval Monitoring | | This 20 minute program describes the set up and use of QT Interval Monitoring now available in the IntelliVue Information Center Release K, and the IntelliVue Patient Monitor Release F. |
Hyperparathyroidism and Parathyroid Adenoma | | This case study provides information about a patient with hyperparathyroidism and parathyroid adenoma. The patient’s medical history, results of diagnostic procedures and treatment options are presented. This case study illustrates some nuclear medicine and sonographic findings of this pathology, in addition to how other imaging modalities can contribute to the diagnostic process. |
Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS) | | From this case study, the learner will distinguish the ultrasound findings associated with the pathology of ductal carcinoma in situ - DCIS. These findings will be correlated with other imaging modalities such as; magnetic resonance imaging, computerized tomography, nuclear medicine (PET) imaging and the gold standard for breast imaging and screening; mammography. |
Genetic Breast Carcinoma - Revised | | This case study presents information regarding genetic breast carcinoma. The information is presented in a case study format. By reviewing the medical history and the test results from several diagnostic modalities the reader will be able to characterize the pathology of genetic breast carcinoma. This learning exercise provides a review in case study format. Not only will you learn about the ultrasound findings associated with the pathology, but these findings will also be correlated with other imaging modalities; such as magnetic resonance imaging, computerized tomography, nuclear medicine (PET) imaging and the gold standard for breast imaging, mammography. This case study will illustrate the unique information that each imaging modality, clinical exam, or test provides to reach a diagnostic conclusion. In addition, the library section contains further information regarding pathology and a more in depth description of procedures and material used for these procedures. This case study will be helpful for learners in understanding breast carcinoma to gain insight on how to reach diagnostic conclusions based on the information obtained. |
