About Nuclear Medicine Jobs
Nuclear medicine is a subspecialty of radiology. Examinations are made from images of the body and its functions. The images are developed based on the detection of emitted energy from a radioactive material given to patients. It can be given either by injecting it directly into a vein or be given by mouth. For the most part, the amount of radiation to a patient is similar to that of a standard x-ray test.
Generally it takes 20 to 45 minutes to complete the scan. Depending on the type of scan it could be done immediately after the radiopharmaceutical agent is given, a few hours later, or even several days after the injection.(Source: radiologyinfo.com)
General Diagnostic Radiologist
Nestled in the coastal plains region of North Carolina, you will find a delightful small town which needs a General Radiologist to staff a larger hospital. This is a partnership job opportunity and the new physician will see all modalities, including MRI, CT, Mammography, Nuclear, Ultrasound, Fluoroscopy, and some basic Interventional. This position has it all; great hours, excellent benefits, a very good starting salary, 12 weeks of vacation, PACS, and a minimal call schedule with Nighthawk taking over at 10 pm each evening. This group is a well-established organization with over 35 years of service at the hospital. They cover a hospital and an imaging center across the street and the current members are very civic oriented. Being a short drive from two larger cities, this smaller community offers you the best of both worlds. You can feel safe raising your family in a warm, caring community and still be close to all of the big city amenities. Recreational opportunities are available for those who love the outdoors, include canoeing, boating, fishing, hunting, picnicking, camping, swimming, biking, jogging, and fossil and artifact hunting.
