About the Career
Diagnosing certain medical conditions or injuries often requires physicians to go beyond a routine physical examination; they need to see inside the body, so an xray of the affected area is ordered. Radiographers work with patients to acquire the necessary diagnostic images. If you're detail-oriented, caring, interested in anatomy and physiology, able to work under pressure, and inclined to work with technology and people, a career as a radiographer may be a satisfying choice for you.

Testimonials
“I chose LTC for my radiography career training because someone I knew at work mentioned LTC and how it was respected. I earned my associate degree and I passed the registry exam. LTC helped me reach my career goal and get a full-time radiography job in Milwaukee. Currently, I'm learning a specialty on the job and am also taking over quality control of the x-ray machines. LTC is a very good college for learning and reaching one's career goals.”
