Radiology - CT Tech

CT Technologist

CT technologists utilize computerized tomography (CT) scanners to produce cross-section images of patients' internal organs and tissues for the diagnosis of medical issues. A CT scan technologist must be able to interpret a physician's scanning instructions. They administer contrast materials, prepare and operate the CT scan equipment, and position the patient to capture the appropriate images. A CT scan technologist must maneuver equipment and patients, which may pose physical challenges. CT scanners emit radiation, which can be harmful if proper safety procedures are not followed.
