Error at the start, the caption refers to him as a radiologist. He's a radiographer, not a radiologist.

Maybe it is different in the United States, but a Radiologist is the doctor. We are Radiologic Technologist, not Radiologist.

[@phoebethomas7115]

In the UK, what would be American Radiolologic Technologists are Radiographers

***** Radiographers and Radiologists are two separate roles: www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/broughttolife/people/radiologists.aspx

Yea it's known by different names. Here in Sweden if I translate it it would be called "X-ray nurse". But we just use "radiographer" when we say it in english.

Michelle J question hopefully you see this is a radiologic technologist the same as a radiographer?

[@mariahgrant9717]

If you don't mind me asking, How did you start? With schooling?

[@brandoncrary6265]

Do you mean in general for the position of a radiographer?

[@jonathanro2259]

In the video he says he walks about 6 miles a day on the job. Is this true for most rad techs?

[@EpicEditsBySaz]
