Why choose a radiology career in the healthcare industry?
Choosing a medical career can be a daunting task. Doing one thing for the rest of your life is a very important decision. If you like the medical field, but can’t stomach being a nurse then radiology just might be what you are looking for. I have been an x-ray tech for 14 years. It can be quite rewarding. My husband has also been a tech for 13 years. We have a very comfortable lifestyle, and we both enjoy the field. After you are accepted into the program it takes two years of training to become a radiology tech. Not too shabby considering most degrees take 4 years or more to complete. If you want to choose one of the specialty modalities you may be required to take an addition year to year and a half. The more you train the more your income potential is.
