Radiology training: A look inside the human being

For more than 100 years now, X-rays have been used to detect pathologies in the human body, to prepare for treatment or to check after treatment. However, it is no longer just X-rays that are used in radiology; radiation-free instruments are also used in radiology, such as MRI and ultrasound.

Radiology offers interesting fields of activity for people with an interest in science and excellent prospects for the future thanks to the ever-increasing pace of progress in the medical sector and therefore also in radiology. Contrary to what is often assumed, trained specialists in radiology or medical-technical assistants in radiology are not only found in hospitals, but often also in specialist practices, in research facilities and industry, in medical-physical institutions or in educational establishments.

The options for training or continuing education, further training in radiology are diverse and not just limited to the professions already mentioned. Specializations and specializations are also possible and are offered by various schools in Switzerland. Find out here at Ausbildung-Weiterbildung.ch about suitable seminars, courses or training courses according to your preferences and receive detailed information.
