Radiologic Technology (AS)
Launch your career as an X-ray tech. Supported by experienced professionals, you'll master diagnostic and therapeutic equipment in state-of-the-art facilities and graduate ready to sit for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) certificate exam.
Diagnostic Medical Sonography (BS)
