I’m interested in being an MRI tech and i want to know all the details. Someone told me that there is an 18 month course and after the school is over they place you in an office to work at. is this true? Please give me as much information about being an MRI tech as possible. Thank you.

The correct title is Radiologic Technologist and California has many schools, check out the link. www.csrt.org/schools.pdf

I just graduated from high school. And i am really interested in becoming a MRI Technician but i find alot of misleading information on the internet.
Are a Radiologist technician and a MRI Technician the same thing? I know that radiololgies and MRI’s are totallt different.
And how do the salaries differ between the different MRI Technicians?

Radiology is my dream career, but many ppl say that it causes cancer, is that true?

In general, MRI techs usually go to school for radiologic technology first, then cross-train in MRI.
Ultrasound schools:
College of DuPage – Glen Ellyn, IL
John A. Logan College – Carterville, IL
Northwestern Memorial Hospital – Chicago, IL
Rush University – Chicago, IL
South Suburban College – South Holland, IL
Southern Illinois University – Carbondale, IL

I’m looking for a MRI school, does anyone know one that is in Georgia or near Georgia. I keep searching but can’t find any school. Thank you very much.

And can someone please explain to me all of the things that x-ray techs do.

They are an employment agency. If it’s working directly with them, it depends because each branch is a franchise, I believe.
Chain staffing agencies tend to have stricter quotas on calls made, candidates interviewed, etc.
Are you sure it’s a direct position with MRI and not a job they want to place you in?

I’m considering a career change and have always been interested in healthcare. From what I’ve read RNs, RTs or ultrasound technicians have a strong future in healthcare. Can anyone tell me how much school is involved in becoming an UT? I only have some college completed and would need to go back to school – the question is, for how long?
Thanks for your help!
