Program details
Overview
Technologie de médecine nucléaire (142.F0) is a technical DEC in health sciences at Collège Ahuntsic. It trains nuclear medicine technologists to perform imaging exams that assess the function of organs and tissues such as the heart, liver, kidneys, bones, brain, and thyroid gland. The page describes the technologist's role as preparing and measuring the radioactive substance required for an exam, administering it to the patient, operating the detection cameras and equipment that capture the injected substance, and producing and recording images of the area examined. Because the specialist physician (nuclear medicine physician) is not present during the procedure itself, the page notes that the technologist is responsible for the quality of the exam as well as the patient's safety and comfort, before passing the processed data to the physician for diagnosis or treatment adjustment. It states that nuclear medicine technologists are among the few medical technology professionals who mainly work daytime hours during the week. The page describes this DEC as unique to Collège Ahuntsic in the region and highlights the college's recognized standing within the Canadian and American nuclear medicine community. The program suits students with an interest in science, precision work, and patient-facing healthcare roles.
