Department of Radiography
Want to Deliver Picture-Perfect Care?
The Radiography Department completes St. Catharine’s compliment of leading imaging programs in the region. The department supports degrees that can make students one of 300,000+ persons who perform diagnostic medical examinations and administer radiation therapy treatment. After the initial completion of our Associate’s Degree, students can elect to continue with the Advanced Medical Imaging (AMI) program and become prepared for CT (computed tomography) or MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). Students can also complete a Bachelor of Health Sciences with an overall view of the healthcare field.
Students of our programs learn how to position patients to ensure that a quality diagnostic image is produced. During their course of study, students study anatomy, biology, radiation safety and physics. Yet, the field is not just science; it is a mixture of science and art. Our students work with the most technologically advanced equipment in the medical field, using computers to acquire and manipulate images. In addition, they learn to communicate with patients to provide them with accurate and compassionate patient care, while working with other members of the healthcare team.
