Nuclear Oncology
CME Group, July 2008
The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
Genetic alterations often indicate the risk of developing cancer and can define molecular signatures suitable for radionuclide diagnosis and therapy. Once identified, they can be targets for stable or radioactive pharmaceuticals to try to bring about complete or partial remission of the patient’s disease. This program in Nuclear Oncology covers imaging, dosimetric, and therapeutic applications of radiopharmaceuticals and metabolic imaging agents, with descriptions of how these techniques are being applied in the care of patients. The integration of imaging to personalized treatment choices is also emphasized.
Target Audience
This program will have special relevance for nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, and radiation oncologists, and will also be useful for all who treat patients with cancer.
