Special Procedures Technician Jobs in Kentucky

A Special Procedures Technician in the radiology field plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating patients by assisting physicians in performing specialized procedures using advanced diagnostic imaging technology. Their responsibilities encompass preparing patients for procedures, operating imaging equipment such as X-ray, CT, and MRI machines, monitoring patients during the procedure, and ensuring the images are of high quality for accurate interpretation by the radiologist.
