Personal Statement
I chose Radiologic Sciences because I have always been interested in Medical Imaging.
Unlike other imaging modalities, Nuclear Medicine focuses on physiology, rather than anatomy, therefore it represent a more challenging patient care clinical aspect than other anatomy related imaging modalities, as it involves the use of radiopharmaceuticals.
