[MUSIC PLAYING] Medicine has come a long way
since its humble beginnings. And one of the key factors
in its storied transformation has been the science
of medical imaging. Medical imaging allows
health care workers to see inside
patients' bodies using minimally-invasive
techniques and procedures. And these procedures are
essential in the identification and treatment of all sorts
of medical conditions. At Mayo Clinic School
of Health Sciences, we offer several medical
imaging programs. Radiologic
technologists
are experts in performing x-rays to create
images of specific body parts. Nuclear medicine technologists
prepare small doses of radioactive drugs and
capture images used to diagnose infections and disorders. Diagnostic medical sonographers
use imaging equipment that relies on
sound waves to form images of many parts of the
body, also known as ultrasound. And MRI technologists, who
use magnetic resonance imaging techniques to create detailed
images of organs and tissues in your bod
y. A career in medical
imaging is a fantastic fit for people who love science,
enjoy working directly with patients, and
value job security. Visit us online to explore
Mayo Clinic's health sciences education programs, where
you'll learn hands-on at one of the nation's
top medical centers. And you'll have a jumpstart
on your new career, as most of our graduates go
on to work at Mayo Clinic.
