You have to be patient with the people who are comingto do an exam.You need to have a good eye to see if there is any problem with the radiography.You'll often work with pairs ,so you need to be comfortable with that.Being always professional .But finally, it is nice to be a Diagnostic Imaging Tech.It's not always easy but you'll learn things every day and you'll help peoples life so it's wonderful.
We welcome the patient.We explain to him/her how the exam is going to proceed.We guide him/her for the radiography.We take the radiography. And then, we send it to the doctor for a diagnostic.
It depends on every day, we are not always on the same machine, but obviously we take radiography.
They can work at the hospital, in a clinical and again it all depends on the person preferences.Working at the hospital mean's you have more variety of patients, variety of exams and a lot more patients in a day. In clinical, it is the opposite, so if you're more like a calm person, clinical is better for you.You'll like it more.
You need to go to a cegep that has the technique, in Montreal, it has it at Ahuntsic and at Dawson (in English). You'll have 2 years of cegep and 1 year of trainee ship.And after this, if you passed all of your courses and exams, you'll be ready to work!
The average salary is 45 K/year.
We can take a formation to be more specialized in a certain machine.
We work with X -rays so of course there is danger to be exposed, but if we do the measures of protection, there is no problem.
It is a possibility, with technology it is not a crazy thinking.The machines are more and more improved, so I won't be surprised if it happens someday.
Around 66 years old.
I am currently finishing my sessions and next September I'm going into my trainee ship.I can't wait to start working and I want to to some formations to be more specialized into some machines.
