  • Follow all radiation safety protocols to protect both patients and staff, including the use of appropriate shielding and adhering to dosage guidelines.
  • Ensure compliance with healthcare regulations, including HIPAA, safety standards, and Joint Commission guidelines.
  • Stay updated on changes to regulatory standards, including radiation safety, patient privacy, and procedural guidelines.
  1. Documentation and Record Keeping:
  • Accurately document imaging procedures, patient information, and any adverse events or changes in patient status.
  • Ensure all documentation is compliant with hospital or clinic policies, medical record-keeping regulations, and industry standards.
  • Assist with maintaining patient flow by providing quick turnaround times for imaging results when needed.
  1. Patient Education and Support:

  1. Professional Development and Training:
  • Participate in continuing education to stay current with advancements in CT imaging technology, protocols, and safety procedures.
  • Attend in-house training sessions and seminars on new imaging techniques or equipment.
