What does the day look like?
About 40% of your day is image acquisition. You set exposure factors like kVp and mAs for the patient's size, age and condition, and position people on tables or erect buckys for chest, abdomen, limb, spine and trauma images. You run DR and CR suites, mobile X-ray units in intensive care, and C-arms in operating theatres, and you set up contrast injectors for CT and MRI under senior supervision.
About 35% is direct patient care: 3-point identification with full name, date of birth and address, pregnancy checks for patients aged 12 to 55, moving immobile patients with slide sheets and patslides, and cannulation for contrast. The other 25% is checks and safety: validating requests, working in RIS and PACS, collimating the beam and watching DAP readings. Contracts are 37.5 hours in the United Kingdom and 40 hours in the United States and Germany, with 12-hour rotating shifts, evenings, weekends, on-call cover and lone night shifts in the emergency department.
