Program Overview

Nuclear medicine is a medical imaging modality that uses radioactive materials, administered into the body, to image physiologic processes.Nuclear medicine is used to diagnose and treat diseases by using small quantities of radiopharmaceutical material in the body. It provides a safe and effective way to allow for earlier diagnoses and treatment of abnormalities, sometimes long before medical problems may become apparent with other diagnostic tests. This early detection, combined with early treatment, can allow for a more successful prognosis.

Program graduates will be allowed to take the national certification exams required to work in this field. Nuclear Medicine Technologists (NMTs) are certified by the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB) and the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT). Upon successful completion of the exams, graduates may apply for Washington State licensure and be able to practice as a licensed Nuclear Medicine Technologist.
