Today's medical equipment allows doctors to virtually perform miracles when it comes to diagnosing patients' internal illnesses. Without actually making incisions, doctors can diagnose internal conditions using complex technology and the images created by computerized tomography (called CT or CAT) scans and Magnetic Resonance Imaging ( MRI). Because medical personnel rely so heavily on this advanced equipment, individuals who keep these machines functional—medical imaging equipment technicians—are vital. As a student in Texas State Technical College 's Medical Imaging Systems Technology Specialization (MIT), offered through the Biomedical Equipment Technology department, you can train for a fascinating career in repairing, calibrating and troubleshooting today's medical imaging equipment. TSTC's Medical Imaging Systems Technology program, developed at the request of hospital personnel and biomedical equipment manufacturers, offers the nation's first Associate of Applied Science degree specializing in X-ray, ultrasound and CT equipment and MRI. As a graduate, you can work to ensure that this vital medical equipment remains in peak working condition at all times.
