BA/BS in Radiological Technology

The Radiological Technology Program is a joint educational program offered through the University of Toronto and The Michener Institute of Education at UHN. The program teaches students to develop the necessary technical, critical thinking and problem-solving skills to complete and adapt radiological procedures based on a patient’s medical condition. Using the extensive on-site tools, such as the X-ray, CT and operating room equipment, the program provides students with the opportunity to gain competence and confidence in a simulated environment before proceeding to the clinical practicum. Graduates can further specialize in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, health informatics and management. Graduates are eligible to write the national certification examination conducted by the Canadian Association of Medical Radiation Technologists (CAMRT). Certification allows them to apply for registration as a radiological technologist with the College of Medical Radiation and Imaging Technologists of Ontario (CMRITO). The Radiological Technology program is accredited by Accreditation Canada. Accreditation is a quality improvement process that ensures educational programs meet national standards and that students acquire the knowledge, skills, and competencies for safe and effective care at entry to practice.
