Radiological technologists are experts in the use of electromagnetic radiation, such as X-rays, for the diagnosis of injury and disease. Just about every Canadian will benefit from the work and care of a radiological technologist at some point in their lives - whether it's for a sprain, broken ankle or an annual preventative care mammogram.
Radiological technologists use a variety of technologies such as:
Radiography, the commonly used X-ray for the chest, bones, joints, spine and gastrointestinal system
Mammography, for early detection of breast cancer
Bone Mineral Densitometry for detection and follow up of osteoporosis
Angiography, to examine the heart and vascular (veins and arteries) system
Fluoroscopy, real-time, moving images of internal structures
Computed Tomography (CT) scanning used to obtain cross-sectional virtual slices through anatomical structures and to create 3-dimensional reconstructions
Radiological technologists work directly with patients, providing a combination of technological expertise and personal one-on-one care. As a registered radiological technologist, you will:
Assess a patient’s condition and obtain clinical history
Determine technical parameters for production of images
Conduct examinations within a hospital’s diagnostic imaging department, operating room, trauma room and critical care units
Analyze images
Collaborate with the medical team, including radiologists
Provide education and information to the patient and their family
