Nuclear Medicine Imaging

Nuclear Medicine Technologist 

In the Heart of Western Colorado, Every Image Tells a Story — And You’re the One Helping Tell It

It’s early morning in Paradox, Colorado, and the sun is rising over the Grand Mesa, casting a golden light across the quiet town and the surrounding farmlands. While the world is just beginning to stir, you’ve already stepped into your role—as a Nuclear Medicine Technologist, preparing for a day filled with purpose.

There’s a patient scheduled this morning who’s been waiting weeks for answers. Their symptoms have been unclear, their tests inconclusive. Today, you’ll help bring clarity—not just through technology, but through empathy, focus, and a deep understanding of the science and humanity behind every scan.

This is more than just a job in medical imaging. In Paradox, a close-knit community where people still know their neighbors by name, your role is personal. You’re not just the person behind the camera—you’re part of someone’s healing journey.

Your Role in Their Story

You start your day calibrating the equipment, carefully preparing the radiopharmaceuticals with precision. You know each detail matters—just like the patients who walk through your doors.

As your first patient lies on the table, unsure and anxious, you walk them through every step. Your voice is steady, your words comforting. You know that a calm, compassionate presence can sometimes be just as healing as the results they’re waiting for.

You guide the scan, monitor the data, and make sure the image is as clear as the story it needs to tell. Whether it’s detecting early signs of cancer, assessing organ function, or ruling out dangerous conditions, your work gives people the answers they need to take their next step forward.

• Certified (or eligible) through ARRT (N) and/or NMTCB
• BLS certification required
• Strong knowledge of radiopharmaceutical preparation, imaging equipment, and radiation safety
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
