Nuclear Medicine
Nuclear medicine was established at the University of Bergen in March 2006. Nuclear medicine/PET-centre at Haukeland University Hospital in Bergen is part of the Department of Radiology. We serve the whole of the province of Hordaland. Our centre includes our own radiochemistry and cyclotron unit. We perform all conventional nuclear medicine as well as positron emission tomography. Thyroid and parathyroid imaging is routinely performed with high-resolution ultrasound of the neck including ultrasound-guided biopsies if indicated.
Nuclear Medicine is taught as part of the compulsory course in Medical Imaging and has been awarded the Medical Faculty's Teaching Quality award 2017.
