The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) is a leading credentialing organization that certifies qualified professionals in medical imaging, interventional procedures, and radiation therapy. 

Radiologic technologists are the third-largest group of healthcare professionals in the nation. They use their knowledge of physics, human anatomy, and physiology to create X-rays. This field is constantly growing, offering exciting career opportunities with competitive wages and benefits. 

Once accepted into the UCHealth Radiologic Technology Program, you’ll gain hands-on clinical experience over six semesters. Multiple clinical sites provide diverse learning environments. Students spend approximately 1,000 hours in clinical assignments each year. In the second year, some evening and weekend clinical rotations are required, making up about 5% of the total clinical hours.
