How Much Does a Radiologic Technician Make?
Radiology technicians must be licensed by an accrediting board. As a technician you would primarily work with non-radioactive substances to X-ray portions of the body that cause a patient or client pain or other symptoms. You would be required to operate computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment to take the images of isolated parts of a patient’s body. After the images are taken, as a technician, you will work with physicians to diagnose medical conditions and offer workable treatments to patients. Hospitals, nursing homes and community clinics are places that hire radiology technicians.
