Why PET and molecular imaging, and why now in your training?

What they are checking: Whether their interest is grounded in real exposure or just an attractive subspecialty on paper.

What they are checking: Self-awareness about gaps that come from their particular training route.

Walk me through how you read an FDG PET/CT for treatment response in lymphoma. What criteria do you use?

What are common causes of false positive FDG uptake, and how do you keep them from becoming a wrong report?

What they are checking: Recognizing pitfalls before they reach the clinician, which is where most reporting harm comes from.

How familiar are you with PSMA PET or other newer tracers, and how would you get up to speed on one you haven't used?

What they are checking: Openness to a field that adds new agents often, and a practical way of learning them.

The posting mentions treatment monitoring as well as diagnosis. How does your read change when the question is response rather than staging?

What they are checking: Understanding that the clinical question shapes the report, not just the images.

A resident you're supervising calls a finding malignant that you think is physiologic. How do you handle it in the moment and afterward?

What they are checking: Correcting a learner clearly without undermining them, and turning it into teaching.

Tell me about a time you had to communicate an unexpected, significant finding to a referring physician.

What they are checking: Timely and direct communication of results, which is a patient safety duty as much as a courtesy.
