radiographers
Radiographers are healthcare professionals who specialize in using imaging technology to create pictures of the inside of the body. They operate equipment such as X-ray machines, CT scanners, and MRI machines to help diagnose medical conditions. Their work is essential in providing doctors with the visual information needed for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
In addition to operating imaging equipment, radiographers ensure patient safety and comfort during procedures. They explain the imaging process to patients, position them correctly, and may also assist in radiation safety measures. Their expertise contributes significantly to the overall healthcare team, aiding in effective patient care.
