Nuclear Medicine
Department website:
Nuclear Medicine focuses on the use of radioactive material in the human body for diagnosis, treatment, or tissue destruction. The course includes both lectures and classes. Attendance is mandatory in both.
Classes last 2 weeks. Dr. Said conducts his classes interactively and asks many questions. The classes themselves are closer to seminars with only a few occasions to go through the department.
If you want to prepare yourself for the course: Foundational knowledge of the thyroid gland's physiology and pathophysiology, PET, SPECT, MR, and gamma camera is beneficial.
The course concludes with a final credit after all lectures and seminars.
The final test will be scheduled once the all the clinical groups have completed the course seminars.
The test will consist of 60 multiple choice questions. It is of huge benefit to prepare using the book of "Nucler Medicine Technology," by K. Ramer, as the questions have a somewhat similar style as presented in this book.
The answers were registered straight on the page (no answer sheet). 60% were required to pass and enough time was given.
Exemption
No exemption possible.Credit is received upon attending all the classes and passing the final test at the end of the course.
In the case of excused absence, the course teacher may organize a meeting where he will ask 2 - 3 questions about the missed material to make up for the attendance.
