Zero college education but interested in becoming an Xray tech!

I am 30 yrs old, have worked dead end jobs since I was 15 years old and now permanently losing my last job during the pandemic I want to make sure my next move is good for my future. I've read the pros&cons from xray techs and it still sounds like it's for me & that it will be a stable long term well paying job. My problem is I've never been to college and I only have a GED, did not get my HS diploma. Is it still possible for me to quickly become an xray tech? How long does it take? What exact certification should I be going to school for, how does the chain of positions go? How much does it cost for the certification or degrees? I am discouraged because of my age as well as my education. Any information & tips is EXTREMELY appreciated!!!

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
