Mammographer Jobs
A Mammographer is a specialized radiologic technologist who plays a critical role in the radiology field. They operate mammography machines to produce diagnostic images of breast tissue, aiding in the early detection of breast diseases, primarily breast cancer. The Mammographer is responsible for ensuring that the patient is positioned correctly and that the machine settings are appropriate for each specific patient in order to obtain the highest quality images. They also explain procedures to patients, provide emotional support, and maintain patient records.
To become a Mammographer, an individual typically needs a combination of education, certification, and experience. They must possess an associate's or bachelor's degree in radiologic technology from an accredited institution and be certified by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT). Essential skills include attention to detail, manual dexterity, strong communication skills, and the ability to comfort and reassure patients. Before becoming a Mammographer, a person might have experience as a Radiologic Technologist, Radiology Technician, or X-Ray Technician.
