Overview
Mission
The society is a multidisciplinary professional medical organization dedicated to improving human health by advancing nuclear medicine, molecular imaging and radionuclide therapy.
What it reported doing in 2024
Meetings - the various meetings held by the organization provide attendees opportunities to engage with each other and learn about new scientific and clinical developments within the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. The exhibits that are on display throughout the meetings give attendees opportunities to engage with industry leaders and keep abreast of the latest technological advancements in the field.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Other-operating. 64% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 85% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
