Q: What is the difference between a radiologist and a medical radiation technologist? their salary on kiwicareers are immensly different???
A: A Radiologist is a trained Medical Personnel who has completed several years at med school whereas a Radiation technician or Radiographer has done a shorter 3 year degree programme. It is these difference in training that account for the pay difference. There are post-grad courses available for people who are qualified radiographers, which may further increase potential pay. It is worth bearing in mind that there is a world-wide shortage of both and people with either of these qualifications are highly sought after.
