There are several distinctive roles filled by radiologic technologists. One area of concentration is in dental examinations. The radiologic technologist prepares diagnostic images of the teeth and gums in order for the dentist to analyze the need for surgery. Another distinct area of work is found under the context of a mammogram, a diagnostic procedure involving an x-ray of the female breast. This examination is becoming very common and is leading the fight against breast cancer.

Professionals working in radiology have some flexibility in terms of their level of education. An entry-level radiologic technologist job usually requires a one-year certificate, with the potential for promotion with on-the-job training. There are also two-year and four-year programs available, resulting in an associate's degree and bachelor's degree respectively, that many employers are beginning to require even for an entry level position. On top of this, there are state admission requirements to practice in this field, and it is always wise to check these out before applying for certification.
