Thanks for your video. It is very easy to understand the subject. One of my close relative recently had an heart attack and two main blood stream veins out of 3 identified as block after angiography. One is 100%and another is 80% blockage. Doctor suggested to check out the organs functionality prior to remove the block either bypass surgery or angioplasty. The method to identify the organ functionality is by scanning nuclear medicine. If do you have deep understanding to do the scanning on heart connected organs, can you make a useful video, we would appreciate you in advance for your efforts.
I am an nuclear engineer, thinking about masters in Nuclear Medicine. Want to thank you for cool and informing videos!🔥 Looks like really fulfilling career! Still trying to figure out the difference between NMtech and nuclear medicine physicist tho 😂
Hi Ijubicasta, you're welcome. It is a fulfilling career, I wouldn't want to do anything else 😍. A NM tech works directly with patients, they administer radiopharmaceuticals and take the scans. NM physicists don't work with patients, they make sure that all the scans work as they should (quality assurance, testing, calibration, and troubleshooting). Hope this helps! :)
@@dr.paulinemoyaert Thank you a lot! I've just understood that I found the perfect masters programe for me, called "Nuclear science and technology - Nuclear Medicine". All the best and keep on with amazing work!
Hi Dr. Moyaert. Thank you for this video. I have interview coming up soon as a nuclear medicine technologist. Please could you suggest me relevant questions I might expect for the interview? Thank you so much
I'm concerned. I've had 15 chest xrays (1 front, 1 side view) and 2 ct scans, 1 chest and 1 abdomin, over the past 3 months. I'm concerned that I have been exposed to too much radiation. This is on top of imaging earlier in 2023,and nnumerous chest xrays in 2020. Predominantly at the e/r with chest pain. Any professionals have any thoughts on my concern. Only serious responses please
One radiologist told me not to worry because it was the same amount of radiation as at the dentist. E/R doctors said, (sounding condescending) "that's not what we do here at the e/r, that a question for your primary care doctor"
@@isla_lilly It seems plausable, 60 odd years ago doctors use to promote cigarettes as health items. I had to have some nuclear medicine once, for a kidney test. It was a hot feeling, made my bladder feel expanded and a slight burn. I had to have that in for an hour. Now 6 years later im having all sorts of bladder / gynae problems.
FINALLY. A Critical thinker in the group. There are rarely immediate side effects with most nuclear medicine procedures. Can it call other cancers later? Yes. A resounding YES, it can. And the fact that this truth is ignored or glossed over by MOST health care professionals should be your number one sign that you are not dealing with someone who is thinking of your long term health, or cares about it all. They want to quickly address your immediate issue and discharge you . . . then get paid and leave any future problems they created to some other doctor in another time and place. In other words, they understand that they have nearly zero accountability for the type of problems their use of these diagnostic tools can cause. How do you know you have a REAL doctor, and not just someone who punched the buttons, memorized the data, finished school and jumped into residency? _They spend just as much time explaining the dangers, downsides, and possible complications of the course of action they are recommending._ They do not hide from it. They do not shy away from it. They do not intentionally discount it or minimize it. They give you the facts. They let you think it through. They answer any questions. Then they follow YOUR choices concerning possible treatments. A good doctor weighs the danger of utilizing the procedure/protocol against the danger of NOT utilizing the procedure/protocol. In most cases, the use of nuclear pharma is likely the best course of action. But when your "doctor" avoids informing you, the patient, of possible negative outcomes and inherent dangers of a procedure, protocol, or course of action, _find another doctor_ . They've just proven they cannot be trusted.
Thank you for watching my video. If you liked it, please consider giving it a thumbs up 👍. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help you ☺.
Thank you, Dr. Pauline! I'll be using your amazing video in my presentation, and I will cite you (I will refer to the link and name of your channel and video) :) Keep the good work!
My uncle has cancer in his body. How can you find doctor who can properly use this to treat cancer? Working for Andy Taylor in England. Stage prostate cancer
Im learning for my exam, and now I finally understand everything, thank you so much❤
it is easy to understand. Thank you, Dr. Moyeart

Hi! Thanks for your feedback. I'll take it into account (but I'm afraid a video like that might be too niche)
informative and straight to the point, thank you!
Thank you very much Dr the presentation is very informative ❤❤❤🌹!
Heart touching your sound! Maa'm❣️❣️❣️
Thank you so much! I'm usually a bit ashamed of my 'funny' accent, so this means a lot. Thanks again. 🥰

Great video - thanks:)
You're very welcome!
has anyone ever heard of it not leaving the body. I had it for a lumpectomy to track lymph nodes and boob still has the green spot, 6 yrs later!!
shhhhhhhh! You'll awaken the sheople.......

damn helped with my maths folio
Glad to hear this! :)
Im confused which career to choose bw nuclear med and cardiac perfusion would u please suggest me if i should go for nuclear med or not?
Plz can you answer my question i am currently doing my masters in physics can i do my research in nuclear medicine???
Are there any side effects with nuclear medicine? Could nuclear medicine cause cancers?

My thoughts exactly! Im really sorry they did that to you... doctors will say whatever big pharma tells them to sell, is safe.
Yes Too much radiation exposure can cause cancer

Do a PSMA PET-CT Scan of him and than get a appointment with oncologist...
Too late he died 4 or 5 months ago.
@@jasonrocksvegas ohhh so sorry for that...
Hey Doc i want to perform my PhD regarding Nuclear medicine can you help me out …?
❤
Have a good day 😊
Do I need physics igcse to apply to university for nuclear medicine
You will have to take physics at some point for the program, yes
Very sweet ur sound! ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Thank you Mumtaj Ali 😍
