Diagnostic Radiologic Technologist
4 open positions in this category
Diagnostic radiologic technologists in the 0647 series perform the imaging that physicians read: general radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, mammography and ultrasound, along with the quality control and picture archiving systems behind it. Within the federal government the Veterans Health Administration is the main employer, in the radiology departments of its medical centers.
Recent listings have included a diagnostic radiologic technologist in magnetic resonance imaging, a PACS technologist, a supervisory technologist in mammography and ultrasound, a supervisory technologist offered with a recruitment or relocation incentive and a diagnostic radiologic technician.
Applying tip: VA fills these positions under its hybrid Title 38 system, and the qualification standard requires certification by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists in radiography, with additional ARRT or equivalent certification for modalities such as MRI, mammography or CT, so state your registry number, modality certifications and the equipment you have operated on the first page. A recruitment incentive in the title means the facility has had trouble filling the job and may pay a bonus. The federal benefits guide covers what VA employment adds beyond salary.
