Program orientation target
- Nuclear studies300studies
The program’s own target, not a COCATS threshold.
- PET studies40studies
Stated for Level II.
- Exercise treadmills200tests
- Treadmills performed50minimum
Counted within the 200 exercise treadmills, and stated for Level II.

Nuclear studies interpreted
Against the Level II target, which is published above.
- Studies interpreted on this rotation
- Studies interpreted elsewhere in the fellowship, which also count
Whether the count comes from MedHub, from CSImport, or from verified manual entry. No total is shown until one of them is connected.
Answered by: Program
PET studies
Counted apart from SPECT.
- PET studies interpreted
Whether PET volume is logged separately anywhere today.
Answered by: Program
Exercise treadmill exposure
Observed, supervised and performed, counted separately.
- Treadmills observed
- Treadmills supervised
- Treadmills performed
Where the three are recorded apart from each other.
Answered by: Program
Months completed
Against the 2 months for Level I and 4 for Level II.
- Nuclear months completed
- Nuclear months scheduled
Whether months are counted from the block schedule automatically or confirmed by the coordinator. The block schedule is here; nobody has said it is the source of record for this.
Answered by: Program
Technologist week
The F2 requirement, as a checklist.
- Radiopharmaceutical handling and dose preparation
- Camera quality control
- Image acquisition and processing
Who signs the week off, and where that is recorded.
Answered by: Program
80-hour course
Nuclear physics and radiation safety — required for the Level II credentialing pathway.
- Not started
- Enrolled
- Completed
Which course the program uses, how a fellow enrolls, who pays, and where completion is recorded for the NRC and CBNC pathway.
Answered by: Program
Conference & learning
- Nuclear conference participation
- Teaching file cases — learning cases, never patient identifiers
- Oak Ridge and other optional education
Readiness
Level I, Level II, and what is still outstanding.
A readiness summary needs counts, and there are none. It stays here as the shape §07 asked for; it will say something the day a log is connected.
Answered by: Program
No counts and no progress bars. UTKardio is connected to no procedure log, so there is no numerator for any of these — and a fellow reading “212 of 300” that this page worked out for itself would be deciding they had met a nuclear training level on our arithmetic. The targets above are published standards, dated and sourced, read from a table rather than written into this page.
Still needed from the program
Listed rather than guessed. These are the facts this page cannot answer.
- Level II logisticsWhich 80-hour Nuclear Physics and Radiation Safety course the program uses, how a fellow enrolls and who pays, what Authorized User status requires here, and what the Oak Ridge option actually is.
- Procedure logWhether nuclear studies, PET studies and treadmills come from MedHub, from CSImport, or from verified manual entry — and whether observed, supervised and performed are recorded apart from each other anywhere. No count appears beside a target until one of them is connected.
