The Training Programme in Nuclear Medicine in Oxford has been jointly approved by the Royal College of
Radiologists and the PMETB of the Royal College of Physicians, and is based at the Oxford University

6). Candidates who wish to proceed to CESR-CP in Nuclear Medicine must have a minimum of two years
general professional training before entering the programme.

investigations per year, including over 2800 PET/CT scans annually. The Nuclear Medicine service is fully
integrated with other radiological imaging modalities. The weekly programme is flexible and can be
adjusted to suit the needs and interests of the candidate. A sample weekly programme is attached. The
