Overview
Successful completion of the Diagnostic Radiography (Hons) degree programme delivered by Teesside University provides eligibility to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council and membership of the Society and College of Radiographers.
Key Facts
The work of a diagnostic radiographer is incredibly diverse, challenging, and rewarding. You use the latest medical imaging technology to produce high-quality diagnostic images that support the clinical diagnosis and treatment of trauma or disease for a range of patients within busy clinical settings, including accident and emergency, general x-ray, and theatre.
You work in fast-paced clinical settings where patient interactions are often short compared with other health care settings, so you need to have strong interpersonal and communication skills to quickly put the patient at ease and demonstrate a high level of patient care, empathy, and compassion.
You gain valuable clinical knowledge and practical skills through a variety of teaching tools, such as our extensive medical imaging database, and large range of simulation equipment and software which is used to teach radiography students all over the world. You have access to an x-ray machine and engage in face-to-face simulation with your peers to provide you with confidence for the clinical practice setting.
Clinical placements at a base hospital develop the knowledge, skills, and attitude required to become a diagnostic radiographer. You also develop a long-term relationship with your clinical colleagues. You are required to participate in a shift pattern rota, which includes weekend working.
Career opportunities
Radiographers are high in demand in the UK and overseas within the NHS and private sectors. This has led to regular 100% employment rates for our graduates. You could work in one of several sections within a hospital medical-imaging department and carry out a variety of imaging investigations, including projection radiography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
You may also consider postgraduate study and research.
