Outreach

SNMMI places a priority on educating patients and referring physicians about nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. A Patient Advocacy Advisory Board was created to guide the society's outreach efforts. The board includes the Alzheimer's Association, the American Thyroid Association, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the Ovarian Cancer National Alliance, the American Heart Association, the Men's Health Network and the Thyroid Cancer Survivors' Association. One of the main projects of the board was the development of a patient-oriented website, www.discoverMI.org.
