School of Radiologic Technology
Radiologic technologists perform medical radiologic procedures using ionizing radiation. A radiographer may perform radiologic exams in the emergency trauma center, surgery, and intensive care units as well as in the Radiology department. Radiographers accurately produce images of anatomical structures by applying knowledge of anatomy, radiographic positioning and radiographic technique.
Additional duties may include radiographic equipment maintenance, image processing, keeping patient records, communication with other health professionals, and other assorted office tasks. Radiographers are employed in hospitals, medical clinics and private doctor's offices. Radiographers may also seek employment in chiropractic and dental offices. If you like working with people, highly technical medical imaging equipment and have good physical and mental stamina, this may be the occupation for you.
