The McGill Nuclear Medicine program is designed to meet the requirements of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, as well as the American Board of Nuclear Medicine. Upon completion of training, a resident is expected to be a medical specialist with the ability to advise on, supervise, perform and interpret imaging and non-imaging diagnostic procedures and to perform radiotherapy with unsealed radioactive sources to such a level of competence as to function as a consultant to referring physicians. The resident will be provided with appropriately supervised increasing professional responsibility during the program based upon their individual ability. This will culminate in their ability to autonomously supervise their own Nuclear Medicine department upon completion of training.
