Radiologic procedures are vital to the diagnosis of many medical conditions, and the responsibility for quality imaging lies greatly with the radiologic technologist. When a patient is having an x-ray or other diagnostic imaging procedure, the radiologic technologist positions the patient, operates the equipment to record the image, and then provides the image to a radiologist for diagnosis.
