Radiologic Technologist Duties and Responsibilities
Radiologic technologists may choose to specialize in areas such as sonography, mammography, and bone density. Specialization in one or more of these areas may result in a variation in job responsibilities, but there are core tasks that apply to all radiologic technologists. A list of core tasks common to this position includes:
Instruct Patients To ensure patient safety and comfort prior to and during procedures, radiologic technologists provide instructions on the processes involved with X-rays and CT scans.
Maintain Equipment For imaging equipment to function properly and safely, it must be maintained, tested, and updated and upgraded as necessary. It is the radiologic technologist’s responsibility to ensure the equipment is maintained according to standards.
Analyze Images Because quality images are essential for making accurate diagnoses, they review the images taken to ensure they’re effective for diagnosis.
Produce Images Radiologic technologists use radiologic and MRI imaging equipment to take X-rays that are used to determine whether a patient has an illness or injury.
Prep Patients for Imaging Correctly positioning patients on the examination table is critical to producing satisfactory images that meet the ordering physician’s needs.
Radiologic Technologist Skills and Qualifications
In addition to a keen eye and warm bedside manner, employers prefer radiologic technologists who possess the following skills:
- Reading comprehension – radiologic technologists must be able to understand and follow physician instructions exactly as they are written
- Mechanical aptitude – because they work with complex machines to produce the requested images, radiologic technologists must be skilled at operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting these machines
- Interpersonal skills – people skills are required to soothe and calm frightened and anxious patients and to effectively communicate with physicians, nurses, and patients
- Analytical thinking – radiologic technologists use analytical thought when reviewing the quality of images taken and when writing reports for ordering physicians
- Decision-making – they must decide the best method and position necessary to get a high-quality image; they also judge when an image must be retaken
Radiologic Technologist Education and Training
An associate’s degree in radiology is the minimum education requirement for radiologic technologists, but a bachelor’s degree is preferred by most employers. American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) certification and two or more years of experience are highly valued by employing facilities.
Radiologic Technologist Salary and Outlook
The lowest 10 percent of radiologic technologists earn $40,000 annually, while the highest 10 percent make over $84,000 a year. The median wage for this job is $58,000. Location is the biggest factor affecting a technologist’s pay; years of experience are the second-biggest factor. The Bureau of Labor Statistics’ projected growth rate for radiologic technologists through 2026 is 12 percent, a faster-than-average rate. Technologists with multiple certifications will have the best job prospects.
