"You don't have to attend every argument you are invited to." — Unkown
Radiology Technology has been a very rewarding and exciting field. Having been in the field of Radiology Technology for over thirty years, I have never regretted my decision to work for my patients.
Radiology Technology would be a great career choice for the interested student. During our 2 year program, the student will have a wide range of experiences from electromagnetic energy to the final product of an image. Helping patients during a stressful time in their lives is a very worthwhile endeavor. For additional information, please feel free to contact me at (775)753-2463 or email me at mary.doucette@gbcnv.edu.
