Description¶
The SBT curriculum at University A comprised five components: virtual simulations replicating PET/CT and SPECT imaging procedures and radiation safety protocols; mannequin-based training for patient care, injection techniques, and positioning; radiation-free practice for dose calculation, camera operation, and image processing; emergency scenario training for radiopharmaceutical spills, adverse patient reactions, and equipment malfunctions; and "real-time feedback and artificial-intelligence-driven performance tracking provided individualized assessment." These components aimed to develop technical competencies prior to clinical exposure.
