【 摘 要 】
The development of nuclear medicine has led to an entire subset of extremely effective strategies in diagnosis and disease therapy. The emerging advancements in nuclear medicine are vast and diverse. Nuclear medicine tests and treatments involve the use of small amounts of radioactive material in order to diagnose and determine the severity of a variety of conditions and diseases. Basically, nuclear medicine involves the use of the latest imaging facilities such as magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scans and positron emission tomography which will find in many modern medical institutions today. One significant advantage of using nuclear medicine is the ability to make complex medical procedures simpler and safer for patients. With this technology, physicians and medical professionals are able to examine in great detail the most sensitive areas. All examinations can happen without subjecting patients to possibly dangerous and invasive procedures and surgeries. This medical technology has enabled the development of treatment options for patients suffering from serious illnesses, such as cancer either through radiation or chemotherapy. Health care professionals now face many challenges in their profession such as new rules and the latest practices that enable them to learn new skills and new ways of practicing their daily tasks in nuclear medicine areas. As a result, they are confronted with new skills and new ways of practicing in nuclear medicine area every day.
