B.Sc Medical Radiology and Imaging Technology

A Medical Radiology and Imaging Technologist (MRIT) is a healthcare professional who employs a range of different imaging techniques and sophisticated equipment to produce high quality images during any injury or disease. They take the images using range of techniques including: X-rays, Mammography, Fluoroscopy, CT (Computed Tomography), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), DEXA, Angiography, etc. At Chitkara School of Health Sciences, the B.Sc in Medical Radiology and Imaging Technology program spans 4-Years and is taught through a blend of classroom and clinical education. In clinical rotations, the student experiences hands-on learning in each discipline of imaging and, under supervision, performs diagnostic testing in the department of Radio Diagnosis and Imaging. Students undergo rotatory training in various techniques of whole body X-rays including interventional procedures such as Barium studies, intravenous procedures, HSG, RGU, MCU, etc., and also various scanning procedures of CT and MRI. The program curriculum is designed to equip students with in-depth knowledge of human anatomy, radiation physics, and imaging protocols while emphasising patient safety and care. Graduates of the program are prepared to pursue careers in hospitals, diagnostic centres, and research institutions, with the potential to specialise further in advanced imaging techniques or healthcare management.
