What are the benefits of different kinds of x-ray tech programs?
• Certificate and associate-level x-ray technician programs provide students the necessary training to apply for entry-level positions in the field. • Some accelerated certificate programs allow working radiographers to specialize in different areas of radiography, such as computed tomography, mammography, and bone densitometry. Certificate programs also provide other health workers, such as registered nurses, the opportunity to practice radiography. • Bachelor degrees prepare individuals for supervisory, administrative, and teaching roles.
