About the Job: The practice of nuclear medicine is performed by a segment of health care professionals responsible for the administration of radioactive material to patients for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. Radioactive materials and a gamma camera are used in nuclear medicine to image various organs and body areas to aid in diagnosis, and in some instances treat, various pathological conditions.
