The practice of computed tomography (CT) is performed by radiologic technologists responsible for the administration of ionizing radiation to humans of all ages (newborn to geriatric) 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.

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. Engagement in continuing education to enhance patient care, public education, knowledge, and technical competence is expected in this role.
