Considering radiology as a career

Hi everyone,

I am a registered dietitian, but I am interested in switching careers and becoming a radiology tech. I read through the ARRT website and am left slightly confused about whether I will meet ARRT's education requirements. Any and all information or advice is much appreciated... I'm a little overwhelmed with it all.

I have a BS in nutrition and dietetics from Syracuse University.

  1. Is Syracuse University accredited by an agency ARRT recognizes? Basically, will my degree be accepted by ARRT, or will I have to go back to school?
  2. Are there radiology tech. education programs available online? Where are the best places to find an accredited education program?

Thank you in advance!!

Do rad techs/sonographers deal with vomit often?

Hi there! I’m currently considering going to school to be a rad tech or sonographer but I’m struggling to find out if you guys deal with vomit a lot. I am emetophobic (phobia of vomit) and, while I think I’d like these jobs a lot, it does worry me to think about having to deal with it often. Thank you for your help! submitted by /u/pootscoot1 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/p5y0aa/do_rad_techssonographers_deal_with_vomit_often/

Radiology program

I’m from New York looking to attend a Rad tech program. I work for Northwell and recently came across a flyer for John Patrick University. it is an online AS program with clinicals in person (which my job will allow me to do) It seems as if this program is not accredited by JCERT but the school is accredited by ACCSC. I reached out to the director of the school and also the arrt and they say that there would be no issue taking boards. I haven’t really heard of anyone going through online program so I wanted to make sure everything checks out. Since this was being advertised at work I couldn’t see why they would put something that wouldn’t be accepted out.
