Radiographers use radiation (X-rays) to produce two-dimensional, black-and-white images of a patient’s anatomy, usually recorded digitally with modern equipment. Radiographs may be used to detect bone fractures, locate foreign objects in the body, and show the relationship between bone and soft tissue. Chest radiography is a common exam and is often performed to evaluate the heart or lungs for conditions such as pneumonia. In this role, you’ll capture images of patients’ internal organs, soft tissues, and bones using X-ray equipment. Radiologic Techs may also assist radiologists with procedures such as fluoroscopic imaging or gastrointestinal exams that require contrast media.
