Radiologic Technology is the art and science of using radiation to provide images of the tissues, organs, bones and vessels that comprise the human body. These images may be recorded on film or displayed on a video monitor. The Radiologic Technologist is responsible for the production of these images and is an essential member of the health care team. The Radiologic Technology Program is designed to provide students, who will work under the direction of a radiologist, with the essential skills needed to use ionizing radiation as a means of determining the nature of disease or injury. Students participate in classroom lectures, in activities in the department’s new energized laboratory, and in clinical experiences at affiliated hospitals. Learning approaches include the use of audio tapes, radiographic films, slides, computers and laboratory assignments.

Students will be required to adhere to all regulations and policies as outlined in the Radiologic Technology Student Handbook. Clinical education commences in the spring semester of the freshman year and continues throughout the six semester program.

The Radiologic Technology Program is accredited by The New York State Department of Health, Bureau of Environmental Radiation Protection and The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology.
