Radiology Technician Schools in Pennsylvania

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. If you're a medical student looking for a diagnostic radiology residency in the state of Pennsylvania, the University of Pennsylvania Hahnemann both have wonderful diagnostic radiology programs. There are programs all over the state particularly Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. 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."
