Overview

Diagnostic Radiographers produce and interpret images of the human body. Diagnostic Imaging is central to health care and is critical in the diagnosis and treatment of trauma and disease.

Most of Scotland's Diagnostic Radiographers graduate from GCU, equipped with the knowledge, competencies and attributes needed to practice in the modern health and social care services. You will have access to a dedicated x-ray suite that simulates practice. The Diagnostic Imaging (Hons) programme is offered by Glasgow Caledonian University.

An elective placement at the end of Year 3 provides the opportunity to study abroad.
