If so, the Lloyd Veterinary Medical Center (LVMC) in Iowa State University's College of Veterinary Medicine is seeking an Advanced Imaging Technologist to join our Radiology team! This is a unique opportunity for an imaging professional to apply advanced imaging skills in a dynamic veterinary teaching hospital while working with a wide variety of patients, including exotics, companion animals, equine patients, and food animal species. The LVMC provides specialized medical and surgical care to patients throughout Iowa and the surrounding region. Our clinicians, residents, interns, veterinary technicians, imaging professionals, staff, and veterinary students work collaboratively to provide high-quality, state-of-the-art patient care 24 hours a day. What You'll Do The Advanced Imaging Technologist independently performs and supports a variety of advanced imaging procedures, including Radiography, Fluoroscopy, Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and Nuclear Medicine. Working collaboratively with radiologists, clinicians, veterinary technicians, anesthesia personnel, students, and other hospital teams, this position produces high-quality diagnostic studies and adapts imaging techniques, protocols, and patient positioning to meet the unique needs of various species, anatomy, clinical conditions, and patient sizes while supporting efficient patient care throughout the imaging process. Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to expand your imaging expertise across multiple species. Additional Responsibilities Operating and maintaining complex diagnostic imaging equipment. Evaluating image quality and making appropriate technical adjustments to optimize diagnostic studies. Maintaining quality-control standards in accordance with hospital, departmental, and radiation-safety requirements. Assisting with equipment troubleshooting and preventative maintenance to minimize interruptions to patient care.

We are looking for someone who brings professional maturity, strong communication skills, and a positive approach to teamwork. The ideal candidate enjoys sharing their knowledge with others and is comfortable providing instruction and guidance to employees and veterinary students. Because our patients cannot always understand or cooperate with imaging procedures in the same way human patients can, patience, adaptability, creative problem-solving, and an interest in working with animals are particularly valuable in this role.
