wowwwee, it's like the PPR all over again.
didn't think this thread was going to last as long as it has.

i hope to see some of you tomorrow night at Love!!

Nuclear medicine specialists use safe, painless, and cost-effective techniques to image the body and treat disease. Nuclear medicine imaging is unique, because it provides doctors with information about both structure and function. It is a way to gather medical information that would otherwise be unavailable, require surgery, or necessitate more expensive diagnostic tests. Nuclear medicine imaging procedures often identify abnormalities very early in the progress of a disease�long before many medical problems are apparent with other diagnostic tests.

Nuclear medicine uses very small amounts of radioactive materials (radiopharmaceuticals) to diagnose and treat disease. In imaging, the radiopharmaceuticals are detected by special types of cameras that work with computers to provide very precise pictures about the area of the body being imaged. In treatment, the radiopharmaceuticals go directly to the organ being treated. The amount of radiation in a typical nuclear imaging procedure is comparable with that received during a diagnostic x-ray, and the amount received in a typical treatment procedure is kept within safe limits.

Today, nuclear medicine offers procedures that are essential in many medical specialties, from pediatrics to cardiology to psychiatry. New and innovative nuclear medicine treatments that target and pinpoint molecular levels within the body are revolutionizing our understanding of and approach to a range of diseases and conditions.

I suggest you go into that field, it seems much more intriguing then a pediatrician; and considering that you can still help kids with it.

Another upside to it is that, its a pretty small field right and Im expecting it to expand eventually, but also - insurance companies dont cover the cost of nuclear medicine treatment, so the only way to get it done is with cash, and only the rich can afford that.

With that said, are you worried about having a low client base?

It should still balance out right since the money is good?

Well I dont know wxactly what they make per session, or what the cost is of performing the tests, but I heard it isnt cheap.

I think if you do enter that field, you will be well taken care of

Your guess is probably is as good as mine. Right now my biggest concern is studying for the MCAT and doing well on it so I can get into medical school. Once Im there Ill get some advise and see what I should do. Anyway, I the first year or so is generic stuff, just to get a feel for whats going on, and to give students alittle time it figure out what their career path is.

These are the classes, for the most part, you take in your first year or 2:
Gross Anatomy
Biochemistry
Pathology
Behavioral Science
Pharmacology
Physiology
Microanatomy/Histology
Microbiology
Physical Diagnosis (or some kind of intro to the patient class)
Medical Ethics

After you do the classes, you go on rotation at hospitals in various different fields.

And unlike what most people say, it seems like Medical school is no different than any other college - you have time as much time to do things as you give yourself - most stress the fuck out their first year and dont sleep, but thats their own fault.

I have taken practice MCATs for fun, and boy are they difficult...

My Chemistry teacher is on the MCAT board, hopefully he can give me a few tips.

You mean graduate school? I'm an engineering major and I remember taking nothing but b.s. classes in my first year as an undergraduate. I don't see any freshman composition, humanities, speech, etc. Now the classes you presented appear to be graduate level classes. I'm probably more erroneous than ever, but they look hard to be first year. Good luck with that

Im in LIU, my teacher teaches here part-time and teaches at Pace full-time.

He says that taking Kaplan simply just prepares you for the test and gives you studying techniques as well as test taking techniques. Anyone looking to enroll in Kaplan for knowledge should just save their money because thats not their agenda.

I'm sorry, but what is Kaplan?

I'm gonna teach SAT's for Kaplan soon... should be a good time

P.S. It's test prep... MCAT, GRE, LSAT, SAT, etc... they have branches that are K-10 tutoring, private tutoring...

If we are talking test prepping, then I really like the princeton review .

OMFG I can't take this office bullshit anymore! I swear I'm gonna punch a hole through the monitor fuuuuk!
