About This Role
MRI Technologist at Ascension Saint Thomas West
This is a full time, day shift MRI Tech position in Indianapolis, IN. You'll be working at Ascension Saint Thomas West.
What you'll do here
You're the one who makes the scan happen. That means running high resolution diagnostic scans by getting patients positioned just right and dialing in the exact technical parameters to get the cross sectional images doctors need.
A big part of the job is working with people. You'll empower patients by walking them through the process, doing pre screening, and making sure they feel informed and safe before their exam.
Once you have the images, your work isn't done. You manage the diagnostic data from entry all the way through to sending it to PACS so the medical team gets what they need, fast.
And you keep things running. That means monitoring equipment and sticking to strict safety standards so patient care isn't interrupted.
