Radiation therapists administer doses of radiation to patients who have cancer or other serious diseases.
Radiation therapists operate machines, such as linear accelerators, to deliver concentrated radiation therapy to the region of a patient’s tumor. Radiation treatment may shrink or eliminate cancers and tumors.

The best video on TH-cam about Radiation Therapy as a career option hands down. You have a great voice and cadence for narrating and I have no criticisms on your work here. You're the man. Thanks :)
This career is perfect for me idk why i just found out about it i was pursuing all kinds of other careers in the medical feild and it just didnt fit but im glad i found out about this one.
Same !
Thats great news, ive been feeling the same way and now looking into this field. do you make more if you have a bachelors deg?
@@josemesa2934I doubt it
@@josemesa2934hether you make more or not, I know most medical programs either prefer or are starting to prefer workers with bachelors in their field and are starting to even require their workers to have one.
Thank you for this. I am definitely the person who has switched their "dream career" many, many times. I needed this confirmation that radiation therapy is the best for me and the people I want to help!! :)
Thank you so much I was starting to look into this career and now I think I wanna go for it. Your awesome man
Thanks Chris!
You are = you’re. Good thing grammar isn’t a needed skill for this position
This is crazy! I’m an INFJ and looking to go into radiation therapy
Whats INFJ?
@@chidiogoben4799it’s from 16personalites test! Myer Briggs personality type it helps you understand your strength and weaknesses!
Same!
Thanks to you am on my 3 semester of doing this career and it’s amazing learning a lot.
How difficult is college for this occupation
@@braydoncampbell332 Well it’s kind of hard if you don’t put time in to your studies, and mostly your going to be a full time student after 3 semesters being in the program. So it’s easy if you just put your focus on it. And If you have a family and a full time job(between we you gonna have to have a part time when you start having full time school), you have to talk to them since your going to become a full-time students for at least a year and a half.
@@adrianrosado9456is there much math cause i such at math? also they pay seems amazing how long until you work
Great video man! I been thinking about this career and becoming a physical therapist. Would you mind doing a updated video on becomes a physical therapist pls?
Love the very detailed information with data visualization!!! Now I’m in the digital marketing data analytics field and just recently my sister went through the process of breast cancer . What I notice through her process was the lack of bilingual staff members ( my mother and grandmother are not fluent in English). With that being said it dawned on me that there’s a great opportunity to help the non English community (Spanish to be more specific) however o feel that my age(45) and perhaps the education process to become a Radiation Therapist is against me. Please feel free to provide feedback
I'm 42 and will be starting a radiation therapy program in the fall! We have a lot of good working years ahead of us!
@@jh2519 love the cup have full approach. Im thinking of transitioning from tech, as for the last 3 years ive been layoff 3 times. Looking for something more stable without the fear of being layoff.
@jh2519 I agree! I'm 44 and looking to pivot into this field. Plenty of good years ahead!
Fantastic content. Thank you so much for these great videos!
Glad you like it! No problem!
I’ve already graduated with a Bachelors and applying to med school hasn’t worked out. I’m now pursuing other options. Would I be better off with an associates or going through a certification program to become a radiation therapist?
Cert or second accel bachelors
What bachelors degree did you get?
Thank you I'm thinking about becoming a rt after watching this
I’m an infj ! I am thinking of getting an associate degree for radiation therapy!
Hi fellow INFJ, we are awesome 😂😂😂
Jumping in here too and claiming infj, Also thinking about this career. I don't see many schools offering this program. I can't find any in colorado only radio tech.
Is the pay rate a huge difference between a associate and bachelor's
i live in NYC and i like this career, I just graduated from a community college and I want to start a radiation therapy program but I am scare, what if it is not worth it in new york city, What if I am to capable to pass the classes. i would like to have an idea of how the classes are, I am very pessimistic and I do not trust myself.

All jokes aside I just found out about this career and although it seems very technical, practicing and studying the subject over time will build your confidence. + New York pays big bucks. So use that as a starting point to achieve your goal! Good luck!
@@flavioa3965 thanks.
What classes did u take in community college in order to take the radiation therapy program
@@maqq hello, you do not actually need specific classes form community college to start a radiation therapy program but an associate degree of any major to get into radiation therapy.
@@leopoldomedinataveras7583 thank you for answering! did you take the radiation therapy program at a college or university?
I like this career sm but idk if I would like spend all my life doing the same thing all the time. I’ll consider it since it’s a safe option
There are many chances to advance

I’m working towards getting my degree in the Air Force. It’ll be an associates degree in applied science. Would that help me get my foot in the door to become a radiation therapist

Love it.
Thanks can you do optician plz

I want to get An associate in a public community college
Can u pls make a career video on football
Is bachelor's required or do most have associates?
Depends on what you’re RT program requires. Mine only requires an associates. 😊
Do radiotherapist have to radiation exposure risk?
The risk of exposure is quite small as when treating the patient with radiation you are not in the same room and usually, you'll wear radiation badges to monitor how much you have received
Oh no INFP/ENFP :(
I’ve read that this job is at risk of automation. Any insight pls?
I’ve been told that may occur more on the dosimetry side of things, and less for the Radiation Therapists. Until things get like the movie iRobot where robots have smooth interactions and manual dexterity like humans, I wouldn’t worry too much. By that point the future will either be like Wall-E or Terminator, and we’ll have a whole set of new problems than just finding a job.
Let's go
