Sumario:INTRODUCTION: To summarize and comment the available surveys on the impact of COVID-19 on Nuclear Medicine (NM) departments. METHODS: Recent surveys about the impact of COVID-19 on Nuclear Medicine (NM) departments have been searched on available scientific database. RESULTS: Three surveys have been found and commented. Some differences among the surveys should be kept in mind. All studies agreed that COVID-19 had a relevant impact on NM departments. CONCLUSION: Surveys about the impact of COVID-19 in NM could improve the departments’ daily activities, to find a compromise between the security protocols suggested by international guidelines.
