Radiology Technician Schools in Michigan

Video Transcript

"My name is Chris Looney, I'm a diagnostic radiologist here at Heartland Hospital in St. Joseph, MO. What a radiologist does, he's the physician, the medical doctor that interprets x-rays. We read cat scans, we read MRIs, ultrasounds and then regular x-rays that you would get if you hurt your foot. Diagnostic radiology residency is a 4 or 5 year program that is at maybe 50 major teaching hospitals in the United States that trains physicians in the area of radiology. Covers all of the imaging modalities like I mentioned, CT, MR, ultrasound, nuclear medicine as well as things like interventional radiology, neuroradiology, etcetera. Diagnostic radiology programs in the state of Michigan are also many. There's one at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, also at Michigan State in Lansing and there are several programs in Detroit. Thank you very much for watching. I hope you are all entertaining the idea of a career in medicine. Again this is Chris Looney, thank you very much."
