ACR-SNM Task Force on Nuclear Medicine Training: Report of the Task Force: TABLE 1

ACR-SNM Task Force on Nuclear Medicine Training: report of the task force.

The expansion of knowledge and technological advances in nuclear medicine and radiology require physicians to have more expertise in functional and anatomic imaging. The convergence of these two specialties into the new discipline of molecular imaging has also begun to place demands on residency training programs for additional instruction in physiology and molecular biology. These changes have...

AAPM/SNMMI Joint Task Force: report on the current state of nuclear medicine physics training

The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) and the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) recognized the need for a review of the current state of nuclear  medicine physics training and the need to explore pathways for improving nuclear medicine physics training opportunities. For these reasons, the two organizations formed a joint AAPM/SNMMI Ad Hoc Task Force ...

Internal Medicine Residency Reform : Task Force Report

T he structure, process, and outcomes of internal medicine residency training have concerned the profession for over 20 years. Over the last decade the initiative to move to outcomes-based education redefined the competencies physicians should obtain during training. The core principle of outcomes-based education is the objective demonstration that a graduating trainee, whether from medical sch...

Pathways to the Future of Nuclear Medicine Task Force: Phase 1 Report.

T he issue of what may constitute optimal training pathways for nuclear medicine and molecular imaging has been of major interest and discussion over the past decade (1–7). The underlying reasons for these efforts are multifactorial but include the evolving landscape for clinical nuclear medicine practice, such as introduction and rapid adoption of multimodality imaging; development of novel in...
