HCB News: What are you most excited about at the upcoming annual show and conference?
BG: I’m looking forward to seeing the data on the new agents to see how successful they are. Presenting our value initiative about how nuclear medicine provides value to patients and health care overall will also be exciting.
Our value initiative covers five domains:

• Quality of practice, which provides focus on improvement in quality of studies and interpretations, and use of diagnostics and therapeutics, to promote better patient outcomes.
• Research and development, to develop new radiopharmaceuticals in a wide range of diagnostic procedures, and new radiopharmaceuticals for radionuclide therapy.
• The workforce pipeline, to attract high quality candidates to nuclear medicine. Also to get radiology residents more interested in nuclear medicine.
• Advocacy, explaining to legislators, regulators and payors the value of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging.
• And outreach to referring clinicians, patients and the public.
The value initiative will help direct our development of the new strategic plan of the SNMMI for the next three to five years.
