Beschreibungen/Notizen

• In July 2007, the Nuclear Medicine Residency Review Committee of the American College of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) implemented revised training requirements that increased residency length from 2 to 3 y (not including the required preparatory clinical year) in response to the expanding scope and increased knowledge required for nuclear medicine practice. Because hybrid-imaging devices have become standard, nuclear medicine physicians now must be knowledgeable about 3-dimensional anatomy and the interpretation of these images.
