The Nuclear Medicine Services in Brazil fulfills two major regulations, RDC 38/2008 and CNEN NN 3.05/2013, which are applied for the Holders of the Nuclear Medical Service, Nuclear Physician, Medical Physicist, Radiological Protection Supervisor and Technicians professionals. Therefore, to know these criterions should be helpful for the undergraduate students of these areas. As the subjects presented are not so familiar for them, a graphical overview seems to be a good approach for those regulations understanding. Considering the characteristics of Conceptual Maps and Mind Maps, the latter was chosen because of its suitability and ease of use.
