This course further develops fundamental professional Nuclear Medicine concepts and generic graduate learning outcomes. Both of these directly contribute to Nuclear Medicine professional practice. The Nuclear Medicine professional specific topics covered in this course include endocrine, gastrointestinal & gentio-urinary scintigraphic imaging.
| Objectives | Professional specific On satisfactory completion of this course students should be able to: 1. Describe and apply correct nuclear medicine practice in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, and appreciate the range of disease processes which can be diagnosed and treated with nuclear medicine and hybrid imaging 2. Apply clinical reasoning skills to patient management, patient care, and imaging/treatment evaluation 3. Decribe the use of quality control test equipment in nuclear medicine 4. Describe the principles, design, preparation and production of radiopharmaceuticals including the general laboratory techniques and the equipment involved 5. Describe the physiological behaviour and physiological pathways of radiopharmaceuticals 6. Discuss and apply quality control techniques in radiopharmacy 7. Continue to develop communication skills 8. Apply critical reasoning skills through the use of structured critical appraisal approach 9. Conduct a literature search using all major information technologies 10. Reflect on & evaluate personal & peer contribution to the learning process via formal self & peer assessment |
