Information for patients and staff concerning nuclear medicine.
Providing information to patients and staff is an important part of the practice of nuclear medicine. To assist in improving the standard of communications, guidance has been prepared covering the content, style and presentation of letters and leaflets for patients and for medical and nursing staff. Examples are provided which describe nuclear medicine procedures and related radiation safety precautions. They also attempt to answer questions frequently put by the various groups to whom they are addressed.
