Rad Therapy. Currently, there is not too many jobs for Nuc Med and MRI. Rad Therapist also get more money than the rest. Ultrasound is in demand now, but don’t get as much as Rad Therapist.

I live in San Diego County, 41 years old, stay home dad with three kids, I do part time Ebay for some extra income, and my wife has a great job. My youngest will be in kindergarten this year, And I will be looking into getting training for a new path in life. I am hearing that the medical field is a good direction to move towards, specifically radiology, X Ray Tech maybe?
Where do I start???
Thanks for any help!!

I want to get into ultra sound or as a x-ray tech, where should I start? Where would I find an accredited program?

I’d like to create either one for a school project, but I’m not sure if that’s economically possible. Any sites that have instructions on how to build a cheap one? It doesn’t have to be perfect.
Thanks.

I am a medical assistant and want to go to school to become a x-ray technician. Since I have experience working as a medical assistant will it be more easier for me to get a job as a x-ray tech.

Please do not get radiography confused with Radiology. I am currently a Radiography student. I’m in my 3rd semester of school. I will finish school May 2008 and I want to start looking at different opportunities before graduation. I am willing to continue going school. Any helpful information is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Most community colleges and junior colleges offer programs leading to certification as a Radiologic Technologist. Then once you are working in that field your employer will often arrange and finance your training in specialties such as MRI, CT, PET or interventional radiological subspecialties.

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

I’m having a hard time sifting through all the information on the net, and a hard time finding schools near the Portland ME area. My goal is to become an MRI specalist. Does anybody have infor for me on schools and steps I will need to take to become specalized in MRI? I already have a bachelor’s degree (Exercise Science) so is there a way to shorten the training process do to the fact that I have already taken many college courses (including many math and science courses). Please let me know if you have any info on any part of this very long question.

I am looking into an MRI school (seems legit). My question is if I get licensed in MRI, will that be enough to work? Or do you need to be an ARRT x-ray tech with a specialty?
