RADIOGRAPHY PROGRAM

ABOUT USRadiographers, or radiologic technologists, have completed special training to produce images of organs, limbs and other parts of the body that doctors then use to diagnose and determine treatment plans for disease and injuries. Careers in radiography have become more and more diverse as the field of radiology has evolved from the discovery of the x-ray to complex and sophisticated scanning methods such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). As the technology has expanded, there has been an increasing need for highly trained men and women to fill the varied positions available to radiologic technologists.

CAHE’s Radiography Program is an accredited 74-week program, noted for excellence of its classroom teachers and clinical instructors. Students benefit from a full varied curriculum with both didactic and clinical experience components.

Graduates of the program are qualified to apply to sit for the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists national certification exam, allowing them to receive licensure from the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH).
