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
Southwestern Illinois job opportunity for a General Radiologist who wants to settle down in the heart of the Midwest. The new doctor will become part of a very well-established, democratic, hospital-based group that has been servicing the area for over 50 years. The new generalist will see only plain films, CT, US, fluro, and mammography cases on a daily basis. Partnership is offered after one year and a full benefit package from day one. Benefits include a great call schedule, generous vacation, fully-funded pension plan, and ownership in several joint venture imaging centers, just to name a few. A strong cultural heritage and a wide variety of outdoor activities make this university town a great place to reside and raise a family or relax from the hustle and bustle of city life. If you still desire the variety of big city amenities, a short drive to St. Louis will get you there in no time at all.
