Praise for Michael Purcaro's Nuclear Med Quality Project
I wanted to give a shout out to Chief Resident Michael Purcaro, MD, PhD. He worked on a QI project with us in nuclear medicine and did a wonderful job!
He helped me test our pinhole collimator with several settings in phantoms and then a patient test, so we could define what would be best for our pediatric patients when they come.
He presented this work at the QI trainee poster day!
Thank you!
