The role of radiographers in nuclear medicine; the link between patient and technology

Recently, Slart and de Geus‑Oei published an editorial entitled: A new colleague in nuclear medicine, the clinical technologist: quo vadis? [1]. The authors describe how the new healthcare profession, clinical technologists, contributes to the field of nuclear medicine with a position between the physicist and the physician in the healthcare sector in the Netherlands. Furthermore, the editorial emphasizes how the clinical technologist plays a role in developing molecular imaging, dosimetry, and radionuclide therapy in a multidisciplinary environment.
