Mammography Technologist - Be the Calm in a Life-Changing Moment

Providence, RI

Use Your Imaging Skills Where They Matter Most

You're the one patients trust when the stakes feel highest. In this role, you'll use advanced mammography and DEXA imaging to help catch disease early, guide treatment, and give people answers when they need them most.

You'll be hands-on with both routine and special mammography views, needle localizations, and stereotactic biopsies, working directly with licensed practitioners to deliver clear, accurate studies.

And you won't just run the equipment – you'll comfort anxious patients, protect their privacy, and be an advocate for their safety and dignity.

If you're a skilled Mammography Technologist who wants your work to truly count, we want to talk to you.

What You'll Work On

• Diagnostic and screening mammography imaging
• Routine and special mammography views
• Needle localizations and stereotactic breast biopsies
• Mammography quality control workflows
• DEXA bone density scanning
• Radiation safety and dose management
• HIPAA-compliant imaging and records
• Care for patients with physical or mobility challenges

You'll put your knowledge of radiation physics, anatomy and physiology, and infection control to work every day to support accurate diagnosis and safe, effective care. The core challenge: deliver technically excellent images while keeping patients calm, informed, and safe.

What You'll Be Doing

• Perform diagnostic and screening mammography exams using established protocols
• Position all types of patients, including handicapped patients, for optimal breast imaging
• Execute routine and special mammography views with a high degree of proficiency
• Perform bone density (DEXA) scans and ensure accurate, consistent results
• Assist with and perform needle localizations and stereotactic breast biopsy procedures
• Carry out mammography quality control tasks to maintain image quality and equipment performance
• Apply knowledge of radiation physics, anatomy and physiology, and infection control in daily practice
• Use computer systems to manage imaging workflows and patient information
• Provide compassionate, reassuring care to anxious and vulnerable patients
• Maintain strict patient confidentiality in accordance with HIPAA requirements
• Communicate clearly and professionally with physicians, peers, and interdisciplinary teams
• Deliver responsive customer service that respects cultural, linguistic, and age-related needs

What We're Looking For

• A.S. in Radiography or Diploma in Radiography from an AMA-approved school
• ARRT registration with mammography certification
• Rhode Island State License in Radiography
• Additional 40 hours of mammography-specific training
• At least 1 year of experience in mammography positioning on all types of patients, including handicapped patients
• Proficiency in routine and special mammography views
• Ability to perform bone density (DEXA) scans
• Working knowledge of mammography quality control, needle localizations, stereotactic biopsies, radiation physics, anatomy and physiology, CPR, and infection control
• Computer literacy and comfort with imaging and information systems
• Demonstrated customer service skills and strong collaborative communication

The Experience That Will Really Get Our Attention

You're the technologist who can walk into a room, read a patient's anxiety, and adjust your approach without missing a technical detail. You're confident with mammography positioning across a wide range of body types and capabilities, and you don't flinch when the study is complex or the patient is scared.

Ideally, you're fully at ease with the full suite of women's imaging procedures in a diagnostic setting – from DEXA to stereotactic biopsies – and you bring a calm, safety-focused presence to the team.

High-signal experience: mammography positioning • screening mammography • diagnostic mammography • special mammography views • needle localizations • stereotactic breast biopsies • DEXA bone density scans • mammography quality control • CPR • infection control • radiation physics • HIPAA-compliant imaging workflows • patient-facing allied health

Why This Opportunity?

This is your chance to focus on women's diagnostics in a setting where the quality of each exam directly shapes clinical decisions. You'll see the impact of your work every day, in real time.

You'll work with peers and interdisciplinary teams who value precise imaging, strong communication, and true patient-centered care.

If you're ready to bring your mammography expertise to a role where skill and compassion carry equal weight, this is where you can do it.
