Day in the Life of a DOCTOR - NUCLEAR MEDICINE

I am on my FINAL Nuclear Medicine rotation EVER so I wanted to give you guys a behind the scenes look at all things Nuclear Medicine. Many people have never even heard of this field, and if they have, they may not be entirely sure what exactly goes on in the department. It is a super cool and high-tech field that is often times overlooked. Hopefully, with this video I can shed some light on Nuclear medicine, why it is such a great field, how it helps patients daily, and how you even become a Nuclear Medicine physician. Let me know what you guys think...Enjoy!

I’m a Nuclear Medicine technologist. And yea I hear about the “unclear medicine” joke all the time. But the advantage of nuclear medicine images is that they are so sensitive when compared to CT or MRI images. You can get more advantages when you fuse both nuclear medicine and CT images together for better sensitivity and specificity at the same time. In other words, Nuclear images are sensitive to disease detection while CT can localize where the disease is. Function vs Anatomy

Radiology here I come. Just found out what to do as a chemistry and physics lover.

Hey just wanted to say I love the channel! I’m a patient transporter at a hospital and I love to learn about all the areas especially doctors and what they do. These medical shows don’t show what really goes on behind the scenes. Thanks for the informative vids!

Thank you for this, I am a History teacher and I was looking for an entertaining and informative link to today's technologies from Marie Curie, and Nuclear Medicine was just what I needed to interest my students. They love seeing actual scans.

So happy you posted this! I'm a
Nuclear Medicine Technologist in Canada and so many people have no idea who we are or what we do! Thank you for sharing some info!

What a great way to jump into Nuclear Medicine week this coming week! I’m a nuclear medicine technologist, and it’s very cool to see a radiologist engaged in nucs and sharing his knowledge with the public. I’m on the Therasphere team at my hospital and can definitely vouch for all those extra checks during those procedures! Thanks Dr. Cellini!

Dear Michael, as senior nuclear medicine specialist, I really appreciated this interesting excursus on nuclear medicine. Especially the part concerning TARE/SIRT, which is one of my main field of interest. Good information!
All the best,
Luca
PS your surname sounds a little bit... Italian!

This is a great video you did such a good job at explaining nuclear medicine, pet/ct and y-90 treatments! I am a certified nuclear medicine tech who now works in radiation safety, we are greatly involved with Y-90 treatments to assure that the spheres are injected properly and that there is no contamination to the patient, staff, equipment, etc. I can’t wait to show friends and family this video so they can understand what nuclear medicine is and all that I do!

I’ve been researching about nuclear med. after doing eeg at a neuro clinic and experienced the SPECT test & have fallen in LOVE, so happy for your info. Definitely searching schools and pathways, thanks to you and others for sharing!

My RT professor was looking for a video on nuclear medicine in class today since we are going over different modalities and I saw this video and literally yelled in class “DR. I LOVE HIMMMM” 😭

[SydneytheNMT_student]

I’m beginning my journey to become a nuclear medicine technologist and am so happy to come across your video! You did a fantastic job doctor! Will be sharing my entire journey from very beginning of this journey also . It’s always good to educate others and help others dive into this super interesting and rewarding field.

Nice behind the scenes! I always found nuclear radiology very interesting! It is so different. 👍

I love interventional radiology💗
Cool field 😊

[carasmussen]

I just had a PET and pretty much confirmed cancer in my pancreas. i am hoping I can see the film. I meet later today with the surgical oncologist

[sirajummunira]

Hi... I am a Nuclear Medicine resident and I must say that u have really explained well.... thank you... :-)

[ellahushka]

Just had a gastric emptying scan for gastroparesis when I very serendipitously stumbled upon this video 👌🏻🙌🏻

[becca]

Why I am reading scans on animals? Hahahahahaha!! 😂 I needed that. Thanks!

[adityamahajan]

Being a Nm physician... Really liked your video

[jeffguzman]

I have just started watching your videos and just wanted to say you have inspired me even more to pursue radiology. love the videos and thanks for the videos 💯

Opening the nuclear medicine department at the PORTsmouth Naval hospital with Dr. Hodges Goodrich Jennings leach GERBER and CHEN Provided seamless integrated. Y 90 procedure sounds like proton therapy. Thanks for the info.
