A Radiographer is a healthcare professional who specializes in performing medical imaging procedures, such as X-rays, CT (Computed Tomography) scans, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), and ultrasound. Radiographers use advanced imaging technology to create detailed images of the internal structures of the body, which help doctors diagnose and treat medical conditions.
They play a critical role in patient care by ensuring the images are of high quality while maintaining patient safety, including minimizing exposure to radiation. Radiographers often work closely with radiologists, who interpret the images, as well as other medical professionals to provide comprehensive healthcare.
