Medical Imaging Technology is a specialized branch of healthcare that focuses on creating high-quality images of the internal structures of the human body to assist doctors in diagnosing and treating diseases and injuries. This field uses advanced imaging techniques such as X-ray, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), and Ultrasonography (Sonography).

The B.Sc Medical Imaging Technology program provides students with strong foundational knowledge in human anatomy, physiology, and medical imaging principles, enabling them to understand human biology and clinical conditions effectively.

Students are trained to safely operate X-ray and other imaging equipment, perform routine and advanced radiographic procedures, and produce accurate diagnostic images while ensuring minimum radiation exposure and patient safety.

Role of Imaging Technologists (Radiographers)

Imaging technologists, also known as radiographers, play a crucial role in modern healthcare by supporting physicians with precise diagnostic imaging.

Key responsibilities include:

• Producing high-quality radiographic images for accurate medical diagnosis

• Preparing patients for radiological examinations by explaining procedures and safety precautions

• Positioning patients correctly to obtain clear and diagnostically useful images

• Operating imaging equipment such as X-ray, CT, MRI, and ultrasound machines

• Maintaining radiation safety standards and ensuring patient comfort

• Assisting radiologists during specialized imaging procedures
