Nuclear Medicine is a sub-specialization of the Radiologic Technology program designed to train technologists to operate cameras that detect and map the radioactive isotopes in a patient’s body to create diagnostic images. The Nuclear Medicine course pathway will lead to a certificate of achievement and will fulfill qualifications to sit for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologist (ARRT) credentialing exam for Nuclear Medicine.

To earn a Certificate of Achievement in Nuclear Medicine students must complete 37 specified units.

Students must have a Radiologic Technology Degree and a current license before applying to this program.

Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to: 

• possess the necessary technical skills to perform nuclear medicine procedures.
• pass the American Association of Radiologic Technologist (ARRT) certification board exam in nuclear medicine.
