Dear Prospective Radiography Student,
Thank you for your interest in the CCBC Radiography program. Our program
is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic
Technology and has a thirty-year history of educating future radiography
(x-ray) personnel who are employed in:
|
Imaging Centers

Radiography uses x-ray radiation to create images of the tissues,
organs, bones and vessels that make up the human body. Most people are
familiar with chest x-rays and also know that x-rays are the best way to
diagnose broken bones. The radiographer (x-ray technologist) produces
x-ray images of human anatomy for the physician to read and make a
diagnosis.
Through a combination of classroom and clinical education, students in
the CCBC Radiography program learn to
|
|
-
Produce x-ray films of human anatomy
|
-
Position patients for x-ray procedures
|
-
Practice radiation safety
|
|
|
The Radiography program is a Selective Admissions Program and
enrollment in this program is competitive and limited by the
availability of clinical facilities. The information contained in the
links to the left will help you prepare for application and entry to the CCBC
Radiography program (view degree requirements).
Good luck with your preparation for a radiography career.
