• Provide clear, clinically focused radiology reports with relevant differential diagnoses and recommendations.
• Escalate urgent or unexpected findings directly to the responsible clinical team.
• Participate in interpretation of neurological PET imaging where clinically indicated.
• Support metabolic assessment in appropriate neurodegenerative, seizure-related, and neuro-oncology cases.
• Contribute to selected cardiovascular PET or nuclear medicine imaging where within approved expertise.
• Work closely with oncologists to support diagnosis, staging, radiation planning, and systemic treatment decisions.
• Collaborate with surgeons when imaging findings influence operative planning or assessment of resectability.
• Coordinate with neurologists on complex functional and metabolic neurological imaging.
• Participate in multidisciplinary tumor boards and cancer case conferences.
• Present relevant imaging findings and explain their implications for treatment planning.
• Advise referring physicians on appropriate PET-CT indications and imaging pathways.
• Review imaging protocols to ensure studies answer the relevant clinical question.
• Support selection of appropriate radiopharmaceuticals according to clinical indication and departmental protocols.
• Apply knowledge of tracer kinetics, biodistribution, uptake patterns, and biological behavior during interpretation.
• Recognize technical artifacts and factors that may affect image quality or diagnostic confidence.
• Work with nuclear medicine technologists to optimize acquisition protocols.
• Supervise and provide clinical guidance to technologists involved in PET-CT and nuclear medicine workflows.
• Support junior radiologists and trainees in hybrid imaging interpretation.
