Diagnostic Radiology Technologist (MRI) (Recruitment Incentive)

Job Title

Superconducting Magnet Technologist

Job Description

This is an open continuous announcement until 14 August 2026. Qualified applicants will be considered and referred as vacancies become available. Eligible for RECRUITMENT INCENTIVE. Incentive details will be discussed during the interview process.

This specialty modality requires additional knowledge of superconducting magnets, the physics of superconducting magnets, and how they relate to the human anatomy in medical imaging. The technologist must be educated in the safety factors governing a magnetic environment that patients, visitors, and equipment enter. The practitioner must have specialized knowledge of cross sectional anatomy and how it relates to the soft tissues and vessels of the human body. The technologist must also have specialized knowledge in the radio-frequency surface coils required for each specific anatomical area to be imaged. This assignment may also perform basic magnetic resonance safety program duties. Technologists must be knowledgeable in contrast media, power injectors, and PACS. DRT assignments that include performance of independent duties in this subspecialty require advanced ARRT (MR) certification.
