Emphasis
on genitourinary and endocrine imaging. Evaluation of images related to
clinical situations and procedures including patient history, patient
preparation, name and energy of radiopharmaceutical, method of localization, dosimetry, and method of clearance. Normal and abnormal
distribution. Need for additional views and/or procedures. Technical
limitations, protocol and equipment parameters and procedure results.
Sectional human anatomy. Emphasis on the brain, cranium and facial bones. Prerequisites: DMI284. Corequisites:
