PRIMARY PATHWAY: MRI
WORKING IN MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) procedures play an important role in diagnosing diseases and injuries. Although a radiologist reviews MRI results, as a technologist you’re responsible for obtaining the best images possible. Your patients might be in pain or distress, or they might feel claustrophobic. You’ll provide support while talking patients through the procedure and letting them know what to expect.
As an MRI technologist, you’ll work with radiologists to play an important role on the patient’s medical team. MRI is a rewarding field, and you’ll learn and grow as technology advances.
