1 NUCLEAR MEDICINE RESIDENT DUTIES General The American Board of Radiology requires four months training in Nuclear Medicine. Residents will be assigned at least 4 rotations on service. Rotations will be one month for the initial rotation and two weeks or one month at a time after the initial rotation. Nuclear Medicine provides 24/7 service with routine hours of operation Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Residents are to be available on service and ready for duty within 15 minutes of completion of Morning Conference. Residents will be excused from Nuclear Medicine to attend Noon Conference, Visiting Professor lectures and other approved educational activities or departmental service assignments. While on service, residents are expected to (1) review study requests, patient clinical information, including patient interview and examination when indicated, and pertinent study results; (2) assist nuclear medicine technologists and other staff as needed; (3) participate in radiopharmaceutical preparation and study procedures; (4) offer interpretation of studies performed and dictate assigned studies after review with the attending nuclear medicine physician. Specific Routine Hours of Operation Two diagnostic radiology residents will be assigned each rotation. Duties will be shared, to a variable degree depending on the training level, between the nuclear medicine residents. One or two attending physicians, who may supercede the following resident duty guidelines, if indicated, are assigned to service each day. Resident Duty Guidelines 1) Review overnight studies 2) Review the day s study schedule and transfer appropriate radiological studies to the PACS work list 3) Review clinical findings (paper and electronic medical records and patient are available) to determine the indication for the study and the clinical question, exclusive of patients having a stress MPI study cardiology staff interviews these patients. 4) Present clinical findings for cases at each reading session. 5) Delineated daily reading sessions and attending physician(s) schedule posted in reading room i) Overnight studies ii) Previous day PET studies iii) Previous day outpatient cardiac studies iv) General Nuclear Medicine studies
2 v) Inpatient and selected outpatient cardiac studies 6) Dictate assigned patient studies (no imaging study is to be dictated prior to review by attending nuclear medicine physician) in accordance with standardized report format. 7) Interview and examine patients referred for radionuclide therapy; participate in treatment plan and therapy. 8) Maintain a personal log of direct participation in the radiopharmaceutical kit preparation and patient radionuclide therapies. [State Radiation Safety Boards may request this specific information and the VCUHS program director will require the same prior to authenticating your training experience in nuclear medicine]. Your log and Preceptor Forms must be signed by the appropriate preceptor and contain documentation of a minimum of the following: i) Radiopharmaceutical kit preparation ii) Radiopharmaceutical labeling efficiency iii) Radiopharmaceutical dose calculation iv) Patient study acquisition, image processing and display v) Treatment planning and patient radiopharmaceutical therapy (a) Hyperthyroidism (b) Thyroid cancer (c) Bone metastases 9) Of the two residents on service, one resident will be assigned to continue general nuclear medicine studies after noon conference while the other resident will be assigned to review cardiac studies. Specific After Hours The assigned diagnostic radiology imaging resident is responsible for after-hours coverage of nuclear medicine, functioning as the primary consulting and interpreting physician. The imaging resident will discuss with the referring physician the indication for the study and the appropriate level of bedside coverage for the patient while residing in the nuclear medicine facility, as the technologist is unable to perform the study and care for the patient. The resident will record his or her impression in the patient s nuclear medicine chart or the departmental preliminary report form, and will provide the referring physician with a verbal report of the imaging study findings. The on-call attending nuclear medicine physician should be consulted when indicated. See attached Policy and Procedures for After Hours Coverage. RESIDENT TRAINING The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provides a license to a facility for the use of unsealed radioactive material for diagnosis and therapy. Potential authorized users of radiopharmaceuticals you must have completed specified training to ensure the safe and appropriate use of radioactive material. The NRC has delegated the review of training of a potential user to the medical specialty boards in Nuclear Medicine
3 and had adequate training to become an authorized user at a licensed facility. Some states, however, require attestation by a Preceptor or Program Director that the specific classroom, laboratory and supervised clinical experience has been done by the physician who is applying to the state to become an authorized user of radiopharmaceuticals. The MCVH training program in Radiology will provide you with the necessary classroom education and your rotations in Nuclear Medicine will provide you with the opportunity for laboratory training and the hours of required supervised clinical experience. It will be your responsibility to maintain the records of your individual laboratory training and experience with the radiopharmaceutical therapy. Nuclear Medicine will provide you with the forms for documentation of your training and experience.
4 DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY Nuclear Medicine Division After Hours Coverage for Nuclear Medicine Studies Policies and Procedures General: The Nuclear Medicine Division of the Department of Radiology provides 24- hour service 7 days/week at MCV Hospitals. A nuclear medicine physician is assigned as attending physician and is the responsible physician for all clinical activities during his/her duty hours, 7:45 a.m. until completion of the day s work. After hour coverage nights and weekends by an attending physician is available by pager/phone and is on site for study interpretation at least once per day on Saturday and Sunday. A nuclear medicine technologist is on site after hours or on call. Diagnostic radiology residents (imaging resident) who are assigned to cover nuclear medicine after hours will function as the primary consulting and interpreting physician for requested studies and the oncall attending nuclear medicine physician will be available for consultation and study interpretation. Using the following guidelines, the imaging resident is expected to consult with the attending physician at his/her discretion, depending on the complexity of the study and his/her experience in nuclear medicine. Specific procedures and guidelines: For on call add on studies, the on-call or after hours on-site technologist will be responsible for radiopharmaceutical preparation and administration. In all cases, the person who administers the radiopharmaceutical is responsible for inquiring about possible patient pregnancy. In all cases, the technologist will perform the imaging study and must have an attendant present during the study to provide patient care if needed. The imaging resident, in consultation with the referring physician, will determine the level of training that would be appropriate for the attendant(s). In all cases, a nuclear medicine imaging study requested for a known pregnant woman must have the approval of both the patient s attending physician and the nuclear medicine attending physician. The resident must inform the pregnant patient that she will receive a radioactive material, explain the potential benefits and risks of the study, and obtain signed consent from the patient (forms available in the radiopharmaceutical lab). In all cases, the attending nuclear medicine physician must be notified of a request to perform a cerebral perfusion study to evaluate brain death and the study must be done in the presence of the attending physician. The attending physician should be consulted regarding the performance of after hour studies if any question exists regarding the necessity of the study. With the exception of the following studies myocardial perfusion, V/Q lung, hepatobiliary, GI bleeding and testicular imaging studies the indication for an after hours study should be discussed with the attending.
5 All imaging residents should have adequate training and experience to accurately interpret the routine after hour studies. However, if any uncertainty exists, the resident is expected to consult with the on-call attending physician. If the on-call attending physician does not respond in a reasonable time governed by the severity of the situation, the imaging resident should sequentially call the on-call senior resident or any nuclear medicine staff attending physician until the problem is resolved.
