title: A distance-assisted training program for nuclear medicine technologists.
abstract: We have developed training materials for nuclear medicine technologists to be used in distance-assisted training programs. We have completed our first pilot project in Asia and report that there will be nearly 500 students around the world, in Asia, Africa, Central America and South America, using our materials during the coming year.
