Modern radiology is a highly diversified and vast field consisting of diverse areas such as – Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology and Radiation Therapy. The Radiology Technologist, as they are commonly called, work in all these areas of radiological sciences, discharging their duties often at tertiary level medical centers, diagnostic labs, teaching hospitals and academic research centers. These highly trained and specialized professionals work with patients undergoing procedures such as Interventional Angiography, Computed Tomography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Doppler Scanning, Ultrasonography and many others. Thus, they are a key part of healthcare delivery team in any modern hospital set up. To meet the growing demand for well-trained radiology technologist, the university offers a 4-year degree program in Radiology Technology. The curriculum of Radiology Technology is well designed to equip students with theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The students are provided with the opportunity to work in hospitals to sharpen up their clinical skills.
