What do Mammography Radiologic Technologists do?
Mammography radiologic technologists operate specialized X-ray equipment to produce breast images for detecting breast cancer and other conditions, ensuring patient safety through proper positioning and radiation protection.
Their duties include patient communication and care, preparing the equipment, reviewing images for quality, maintaining records, and staying current with the technology through continuing education.
Responsibilities
Patient Care: Explaining the procedure, providing a comforting presence during a sometimes frightening exam, and ensuring patient safety.
Equipment Operation: Operating a mammography unit to produce high-quality breast images.
Image Acquisition: Properly positioning the patient’s breasts, immobilizing them, and adjusting settings to optimize image quality.
Image Evaluation: Reviewing the generated images to ensure they are technically satisfactory and meet diagnostic standards.
Radiation Safety: Implementing radiation safety measures and wearing protective devices to ensure the safety of patients and staff.
Record Keeping: Maintaining accurate patient records and documenting mammogram services.
Equipment Maintenance: Performing routine maintenance on the mammography equipment, troubleshooting malfunctions, and calling for repairs.
Why Their Work is Important
Community Service: They contribute to public health by helping to reduce breast cancer mortality, particularly in underserved communities.
Early Detection: Their images are crucial for the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer and other breast diseases.
Increased Survival Rates: Early detection through mammography significantly increases the chances of successful treatment and improved survival rates.
