Technetium (Tc-99m) based radiopharmaceuticals are utilized for cardiac (SPECT) imaging studies. Performance of clinical job duties has a reasonable anticipated risk factor of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens or other infectious materials. Employees are required to follow company’s Radiation Safety Policies, including the use of lead shielding, PPE, and practice universal precautions during patient care.
