CT and MRI
Visualize What Others Can’t See
Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technologists are healthcare professionals trained to use advanced imaging equipment to assist physicians in diagnosing and monitoring disease. These non-invasive scans provide highly detailed images of the human body and are essential tools in modern medical care.
The CT and MRI certificate program is designed for credentialed imaging professionals seeking to specialize in these high-demand modalities. If you’re a registered radiologic technologist, nuclear medicine technologist, or ultrasound technologist looking to advance your career and make a deeper impact on patient care, CFCC’s CT/MRI programs can help you get there.
What You’ll Learn
Through academic and clinical studies, students in CFCC’s CT and MRI programs will gain in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience with state-of-the-art imaging technologies. Coursework includes:
- Cross-sectional anatomy
- Imaging protocols and positioning
- Patient care and safety procedures
- Contrast media administration
- Quality assurance and equipment operation
- Emergency and trauma imaging techniques
- Professional communication and ethical practices
Students will also complete clinical rotations in real-world healthcare settings, where they will perform imaging studies under the guidance of experienced technologists and radiologists.
