MRI Technologist Q&A: clinicals, work, school experience, & scanning alone!

Great video

What made you go from nursing to MRI tech? I am deliberating between the two and would love to get your thoughts on it! Thanks for the vid!

great video. i found it very helpful.

Thank you so much for this video such helpful information. I’m currently in school and this helped out so much to make sure I get the most out of my clinicals. Which school did you attend?

Thank you for sharing your experience. What were the overall courses like, its challenges ? And now that you are in the workforce, did u think it is a good career choice. I'm debating between MRI and CT.

What state do you work in? Am seriously considering this field

Hi Mimi! Would you say being an mri tech is low stress? Did you have a bachelors prior or just had the pre reqs and went into the mri program? Also would you say it wasn’t difficult finding a job as having mri only? Would love to chat since I’m looking into this career over nursing!

Hi! A fresh rad tech here from another side of the world! I'm so thankful to have found your videos bcos it is so relatable. I'm keen in joining CT scan and still doing gen rad. It's so refreshing to see how the same job works overseas! Looking forward to binge watching all your videos!

Hi Mimi! currently just got laid off from my job in tech and debating if I should go back to school and go into the medical field. Been reading about radiology tech and found your video. I’m also from the bay and wanted to know what program you did and how is the job opportunities/pay as a radiological tech.

What school did you go to?

Hi what is the best way to become a mammographer technologist. Is this the same as a radiologic technician.

what school did you attend ?

How has it been finding a job as just MRI tech versus having your radiology license and your MRI license?

hi mimi, is it true Rad techs with an MRI creds make more than a MRI only tech ? i was told that mri only techs cap out at 48$ while a rad tech with mri cert caps out at 68$

Great video , I just got into the programs and will start in April , I really would like a 3day shift so I can still work on the side, people keep telling me that’s not likely , , but I know it’s best to ask someone who has experience like yourself . How can I land a 3 day , 12 hour shift

I love seeing girlies in the imaging field 😊

What do you suggest a student do to make sure they get scan time practice in clinical? Is that really up to the student?

Your video brings me hope and motivation! As an MRI tech are you able to create your own schedule weekly?

Hi, I've been a registered x-ray tech in Atlanta, GA for a year now. I am still learning about the different modalities to see which one I want to pursue. Are there any 6-month MRI programs that offers online education that you know of?

Hey Mimi, if you don’t mind sharing, where did you take your accelerated program? At which institution? How long did it take, and did you have to get a CNA certificate to apply? 😊

Are weekends only, 12hr day shifts a common option for MRI techs? Hoping to not work 5 days a week
