Performance and Responsibility Standards for the Nuclear Medicine Technologist

[摘要] The spectrum of nuclear medicine technology skills and responsibilities varies widely across the country. The broad descriptions of this document will provide a basis for determining the areas of knowledge and of performance for the nuclear medicine technologist. The documents used in the development of these standards were the NMTCB Task Analysis of Nuclear Medicine Technology (1), the Society of Nuclear Medicine Position Paper on Licensure, and the Job Description for the Nuclear Medicine Technologist (2). These standards should be considered a helpful checklist of those tasks that need to be performed in the various major subdivisions of nuclear medicine technology. While the editors tried to be complete, nuclear medicine technology is a dynamic, developing, and constantly changing field; therefore, any list is likely to be partially obsolete as soon as it is issued. In addition, the analysis is not designed to be a “how to” description for any of the listed activities, nor is it intended to modify or alter existing tort law. Activities listed may, at times, be legitimately omitted and, at other times, supplemented by unlisted activities.Endorsed by the Board of Trustees, Society of Nuclear Medicine, June 1982
