I got hired part-time as a nuc med tech. The job itself is very low stress and it pays well. But entering the field is very hard. It’s one of those jobs that a person stay for decades. I was very lucky to get partime but the rest of my class got per diem jobs or low paying outpatient jobs.
they all are just different modalities. fluoroscopy is actually something that x-ray techs perform. MRI and CT are just advanced modalities. CT is basically just a 360 degree x-ray and MRI is used to do cross-section anatomy and it deals with hydrogen atoms as opposed to ionizing radiation.
so i really want to become a NMT. i have a deep love for chemistry and especially for nuclear science. i’m in my junior year of high school and i really want to go to uc davis but my gpa averages out to a B+ and idk if that’s good enough to go to uc davis but if anything i’ll go to a community college and transfer
This profession is so well paying, I could see the workforce being nasty by requiring everyone to go back to school for a Bachelors degree in it. Forcing a nice majority of people out of their jobs, making that career field inflate on a shortage of people. This would make the opportunities of this job seem like theirs a shortage of employees. I could also see this profession becoming replaced by regular X-Ray techs. It’s not too demand like a RN or LPN/CNA. This can really get pushed off to another department into their scope of practice for little to no extra money for something they’re already half way doing now. Luckily if I do pursue this profession I live in Florida. Overall, it’s a roller coaster for this profession, decent to great money, potential job limitation, possibly may go extinct as a profession down the road like how LPN’s did in the hospital. Just my review and opinion, great video
Got one up. It is a bit older: th-cam.com/video/aFrXHnza5FQ/w-d-xo.html Doing all the engineering fields again in April when the 2020 numbers come out.
Hi sir... This is riyaz. From india. Iam going to complete my graduation as nuclear medicine technologist. Could you please make a video regarding. How to get a job as nuclear medicine technologist in ur locality.
@@shahnilakhan2984 hi, I am a college student in NMT and I live in PA. The two schools I’ll suggest to you are Pennsylvania College of Health Sciences. Im going for my bachelors degree in NMT here :) They have both associates and bachelors degrees program, whichever you prefer to do. Another school is Community College of Allegheny County in Pittsburg. This one only offers an associates degree since it’s a community college but it’s still a NMT program.
This video did a poor job. It failed to mention that the market is saturated. There are techs with bachelors degrees moving cross country for part time work. There are so few jobs and you want to get a certificate? When a job gets over 1000 applicants, how do you think your certificate will hold up to the competition? The director of the program will use you to justify his job. Stay away.

can u do comparison between and MRI Tech and CT Tech and Flurorscopy Tech

There is a program in my area that is not a Bachelor or Associate. It’s a Hospital based program that gives a Certificate. Should I avoid it???
Do it, all what matters is the Certificate, if you find a place that let you train without a degree great!

@@jessicak4223 smart response. Always go for the highest!
@dlg How about medical lab technologist?
Where you at with that program?
Good information, but dude drink some water your mouth keeps smacking while you're talking.
Thanks! Will keep that in mind.
