Abstract
Radiologic technologists are health care professionals who perform diagnostic imaging procedures that utilize ionizing radiation, such as x-ray examinations, fluoroscopic studies, and portable radiography. They are responsible for accurately positioning patients and ensuring that quality diagnostic images are produced. They work closely with radiologists, the physicians who interpret medical images to either diagnose or rule out disease or injury.
