The practice of computed tomography (CT) is performed by radiologic technologists responsible for the administration of ionizing radiation to humans of all ages for diagnostic, therapeutic, or research purposes. A CT technologist performs CT procedures utilizing CT scanners and power injectors, producing cross sectional and 3D images at the request of and for interpretation by a licensed independent practitioner. CT technologists may also assist with interventional and therapeutic procedures and perform complex imaging reformatting.

CT integrates scientific knowledge, technical skills, patient interaction and compassionate care resulting in diagnostic information. A CT technologist recognizes patient conditions, assesses and monitors patient vital signs, and takes appropriate actions in emergency situations essential for successful completion of a procedure and to maintain quality patient care.

CT technologists must demonstrate an understanding of human anatomy, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, computer technology, basic patient care and assessment techniques, radiation physics, radiation biology, radiation protection, and medical terminology. They must maintain a high degree of accuracy in positioning and exposure technique and remain current with radiation protection and safety and complex scanning protocols. CT technologists are the primary liaison between patients, licensed independent practitioners and other members of the support team.

They must remain sensitive to the physical and emotional needs of the patient through good communication, assessment, monitoring, and care skills. CT technologists prepare, administer, and document activities related to medications and radiation exposure in accordance with federal and state law as well as institutional policy. Participation in quality improvement processes and continuous assessment of performance is expected. CT technologists think critically and use independent, professional, and ethical judgment in all aspects of work.

Note: The CT Tech II WIP job engages in continuing education to enhance patient care, public education, knowledge, and technical competence is expected in this role.
