Nuclear Medicine eNTEGRA Workstation Onsite Training Agenda


Course Description: This program instructs NM technologists in the system operation and clinical applications of the eNTEGRA workstation. Instruction is delivered by a GE NM Applications Specialist at the customer facility. The training produces the best results when 1 to 4 NM technologists are dedicated to the complete training session. It is also critical that key NM physicians are available to review processing protocols and images. In addition, the patient schedule should be modified as indicated in the agenda to allow time for instruction.
