Advanced Imaging Modalities and Diagnostic Applications

This exam addresses advanced imaging modalities such as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT). It underscores theoretical knowledge regarding their application in diagnosing complex medical conditions.

Understanding advanced imaging techniques contributes significantly to improving diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning. Familiarity with these modalities is crucial for specialists involved in oncology and other fields requiring precise imaging.

The verbal assessment will evaluate the candidate’s ability to compare advanced imaging techniques, discuss their clinical applications, and articulate the underlying technological principles.

Additionally, students may be asked to provide examples of specific case studies where advanced imaging modalities have made a substantial impact on patient treatment pathways.
