You'll be the image of success in our nationally accredited Radiography program.
Radiologic Technologists, better known as radiographers, are the medical personnel who perform diagnostic imaging examinations (x–rays). They are educated in anatomy, patient positioning, examination techniques, equipment protocols, radiation safety, radiation protection and basic patient care. They may specialize in specific imaging techniques such as: bone densitometry, cardiovascular-interventional radiography, computed tomography, mammography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, quality management, sonography or general diagnostic radiography.
Professionally trained in x-ray procedures
Students enrolled in our radiography program are learning from experts in the field. Our educators and program directors have many years of field experience and pass that on to students in the learning environment.
Radiographers who perform imaging examinations are responsible for accurately positioning patients and ensuring that a quality diagnostic image is produced. They work closely with radiologists, the physicians who interpret medical images to either diagnose or rule out disease/injury. For the images to be interpreted correctly by the radiologist, the imaging examinations must be performed properly and competently by the imaging experts, the radiographer.
Employment Opportunities
Hospitals are the primary employer of Radiologic Technologists, but a greater number of new jobs will be found in physicians’ offices and diagnostic imaging centers. Job opportunities for radiographers are expected to be favorable, and employment of Radiologic Technologists is expected to increase by about 15% from 2006 to 2016, faster than average for all occupations.*
