B.Sc (Nuclear Medicine Technology) or Bachelor of Science in Nuclear Medicine Technology is an Under-Graduate Chemical Engineering program. The Bachelor of Science course in Nuclear Medicine Technology is a branch of medicine dealing with the use of radioactive materials in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Nuclear medicine can identify abnormalities early in the progression of a disease - long before some medical problems are apparent with other diagnostic tests. This allows a disease to be treated early in its course when there may be a more successful prognosis. Nuclear Medicine Technology can save patients the pain and trauma associated with investigative surgery. The duration of the Bachelor of Science course in Nuclear Medicine Technology is three years and after its successful completion, it offers many career scopes in various fields.
