Nuclear Physician Interview Question:

Suppose if you had it to do all over again, would you still specialize in nuclear medicine? Why or why not? What would you have done instead?

Yes. Even though finding a job in the specialty of nuclear medicine is difficult, I wouldn't change a thing. This is a field that is very technology driven and promises to be a powerhouse for the future of precision medicine. The ability to label antibodies to treat and image different pathologies based on physiology is amazing. In the future, other more molecular based forms of nuclear medicine imaging and treatment will give us additional precision and personalization in the treatment of our patients. This greatly excites me. If NM hadn't been invented, I would have pursued forensic pathology.
