Overview

Students observe magnetic resonance imaging procedures, perform procedures under direct supervision by registered technologists and complete required clinical competencies toward the national certification exam for magnetic resonance imaging or to be applied toward continuing education requirements as deemed by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are ordered on orthopedic, neurological, cardiovascular, cancer and non-trauma patients and is extremely beneficial for examining soft tissue structures. An MRI technologist works in hospitals or outpatient healthcare facilities using an MRI scanner that uses a magnetic field and computer-generated radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues in the body. The images are assembled and reconstructed digitally to create a series of diagnostic images that physicians use to interpret for a patient diagnosis.
