Information on the 2005 Road Shows

Nancy McDonald, CNMT, Chair of the CCSNM Continuing Education Committee is finalizing the details for the 2005 Road Show Series scheduled for the Fall. Road Shows will be held in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio. Minnesota will not be included this year due to the Chapter’s Fall Meeting, “Fusing Form and Function” to be held October 1 & 2 at the Hilton Mall of America in Minneapolis.

Tentative plans are for each of the four-hour programs to be scheduled on a Saturday morning in each location to cover three topics. VOICE credit approval will be requested from the Society of Nuclear Medicine Technologist Section.

1. Medical Ethics for the Technologist (1 hour) - This lecture is designed to provide the imaging professional with an overview of ethical issues affecting their roles in the imaging environment.

2. From Nuclear to CT Technologist (2 hours) – This two part program is directed toward gaining an understanding of the future direction of PET/CT and SPECT/CT. Specific issues includes Safety Issues for PET/CT and SPECT/CT and Professional and Educational Issues for the Nuclear Medicine Technologist.

3. Enhancing Patient Care Skills for the NMT (1 hour) - This lecture will provide the technologist with the knowledge to recognize the importance of effective communication with their patients and the need for additional nursing care skills.

Once the dates, locations and programs have been finalized, brochures will be distributed and information will be available on the Chapter’s web site, including online registration.
