Job Description
Health Saviours is seeking a local contract Nuclear Medicine Technologist for a local contract job in San Angelo, Texas.
Job Description & Requirements
Nuclear medicine technologists typically do the following :
Explain medical procedures to the patient and answer questions
Follow safety procedures to protect themselves and the patient from unnecessary radiation exposure
Prepare radioactive drugs and administer them to the patient
Maintain and operate imaging equipment
Keep detailed records of procedures
Follow procedures for radiation disposal
Nuclear medicine technologists work with radioactive drugs, known as radiopharmaceuticals, to help physicians and surgeons diagnose a patient’s condition. For example, they may inject radiopharmaceuticals into the bloodstream of a patient with foot pain and then use special scanning equipment that captures images of the bones; a radiologist interprets the scan results, based on the concentration of radioactivity appearing in the image, to identify the source of the patient’s pain.
Nuclear medicine technologists also deliver radiopharmaceuticals in prescribed doses to specific areas, such as tumors, to treat medical conditions. Internal radiation treatment may be used in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, surgery.
