Special Procedures Technologist Jobs in Tacoma, WA

Assist in invasive treatment/diagnostic measures that require radiologic imaging. Special procedures technologists—also known as interventional radiology (IR) technologists—operate imaging equipment to guide physicians and other healthcare team members and perform specialized radiologic interventions and angiograms. They position patients carefully to meet safety regulations and deliver clear images. During operations, these professionals monitor patients and report concerning reactions.

Example medical techniques that require special procedures technologists include cardiac catheterizations, ablations, and diagnostic examinations that use dyes/contrasts. Though hospitals offer the greatest number of opportunities due to equipment availability, these personnel are also employed in clinics and diagnostic imaging centers.
