California college graduate interested in Rad Tech career. Where do I begin?

By

I have a degree in biomedical science and minor in chemistry. My undergrad GPA was not great, so I was somewhat limited in terms of what I could do, but I've always been interested in medical technology related careers.

In the area I live in, a community College (Los Rios system) is offering a rad tech program for CT/MRI/VIR, but they require me to be certified as a radiologic technologist in my state. I looked this up and it lead me to ARRT's certification exams, and now I'm confused. There seem to be multiple different exams so I'm not sure what to do from here. Am I assuming correctly that I only need to study for and take the Radiography Exam? Or do I have to take an exam for every listed subject (Radiation therapy, Mammography, etc.)?

Any advice on taking the first steps would be highly appreciated.

AI for radiology - A survey

By
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/
