Is Diploma Radiodiagnosis Technology has harmful from rays?
Dear Student,
Here is all the information about the Diploma in Radiodiagnosis Technology:
-
It uses
radioactive Isotopes
for Medical imaging to treat or diagnose diseases.
-
Candidates who complete this course are eligible to become Nuclear Medicine technologists.
- Programs generally include hands-on clinical experiences under the supervision of a certified nuclear medicine technologist.
- It prepares students for careers in various medical settings including hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers.
Concepts which are taught:
-
Anatomy and physiology
-
Medical terminology
-
Radiation
- nuclear medicine Procedures
-
Radiopharmacology
-
Physics
-
Ethics
List of Courses:
1. Human anatomy and physiology:
-
Students learn about the human body, its components, and its functions.
-
A variety of organ-systems are discussed including The circulatory, skeletal, immune and central nervous systems.
-
Specific organ structures and chemical make-ups that relate to nuclear medicine imaging are covered.
-
Clinical Exposure to human cadavers to study the anatomy of the human body.
2. Radiopharmacy:
-
Radiopharmaceuticals are taught, Radioactive drugs which are made up of an Isotope and carrier molecule that can be safely put in the body to find the area of the body which needs to be diagnosed and how to determine the correct dosage amount.
3. Nuclear Medicine Instruments:
-
The Gamma Camera to track and view radioisotopes through gamma rays inside the body.
- Includes troubleshooting instruments, online correction systems, modifications, and collimators.
4. Clinical Education:
- It can be broken down into levels or subject areas.
-
They are designated to give the students hands-on experience in a health care setting.
-
Working with a current nuclear medicine technologist or health care professional for professional guidance.
-
Specific areas of study may include Pediatrics, Oncology, Gerontology or Cardiology.
Conclusion:
If you are afraid of radiation exposure and the harmful radiation emitted by such alpha, beta and gamma rays then you do not have to be because the procedures are taken under extremely careful environments under professional supervision and guidance with the best technology and protective suits to prevent radiation exposure.
Unfortunately and I hate to admit it that long term of that treatment can also cause you some problems as well and there still remains a possibility of sudden exposure and also enclosed spaces.
Thus if you are afraid and do not want to follow this path then you are not the only one to back down but if you are determined and are ready for the risks in the name of humanity's progress and the love for science (and also a well-appreciated paycheck); you can take up this career path but if you are having second thoughts about it then it is fine as well because there are literally thousands of career options to choose from.
If you have any queries, questions, issues, doubts or problems about NEET, AIIMS, JIPMER, Admission and Verification Process, etc. and if you want any further information on any topic; you just need to ask a question as a separate query.
I Consider your query has met with its conclusion.
BEST WISHES FOR THE BRIGHT FUTURE!!
