What Is a Radiography Technician?
Radiography technicians, also commonly known as radiologic technologists or radiographers, perform x-rays on parts of the human body to help diagnose various medical ailments. Many radiographers have additional training to work in specialized fields such as nuclear medicine technology or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. In the US, radiography certification from the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) is required to work as a radiography technician.
