Description
Nuclear Medicine Technology Study Guide presents a comprehensive review of nuclear medicine principles and concepts necessary for technologists to pass board examinations. The practice questions and content follow the guidelines of the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) and American Registry of Radiological Technologists (ARRT), allowing test takers to maximize their success in passing the examinations. The book is organized by sections of increasing difficulty, with over 600 multiple-choice questions covering all areas of nuclear medicine, including radiation safety; radionuclides and radiopharmaceuticals; instrumentation and quality control; patient care; and diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Detailed answers and explanations to the practice questions follow. Supplementary chapters will include nuclear medicine formulas, numbers, and a glossary of terms for easy access by readers. Additionally, test-taking strategies are covered.

From the reviews:
"It is designed to develop readers' test-taking confidence, test their knowledge of nuclear medicine, and provide resources for further study. . this is a fun book to have in any nuclear medicine department for a little midday trivia and is an excellent investment for the student preparing for board examinations." (Jeanne Dial, Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, Vol. 40 (1), March, 2012)
"This book covers the current material technologists need to review for the board exams. . authors wrote this for nuclear medicine technologists preparing to take the boards, but I also can see experienced technologists using this as a resource for review purposes. The authors are practicing nuclear medicine technologists. . This is an excellent resource for those preparing to take the board exams or experienced technologists looking for a review."
