Because our comprehensive programs also includes clinical rotations in area hospitals and medical centers, you’ll have a hands-on opportunity to practice your patient care skills and technical knowledge. You’ll work side-by-side in radiology departments with doctors, nurses and experienced radiologic technologists.
Whether producing an X-ray to detect a broken bone or helping doctors with a complex procedure, RTs really make a difference in people’s lives.
