Pre-Medical Radiography
Radiographers work in the world of medical (radiographic)
imaging. They are involved in procedures like x-rays, MRIs, CT or PET
scans and mammograms. They must have the training to operate very
advanced medical equipment and understand the safe use of radiation and
radiopharmaceuticals for both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
Radiographers support radiologists and physicians, and may work in
clinics, physician offices, hospitals, emergency facilities, or for
dedicated imaging centers or mobile imaging providers.
