In simple terms, radiography may be described as the science of taking images of the internal and hidden portions of the human body for the purpose of diagnosing diseases and ailments.This includes the use of ultrasound, X-ray, CT scan, MRI, etc.

This profession calls for considerable technological expertise.

Radiographers in short, are trained to take x-rays, MRI, CT scan etc. Sometimes, radiographers are also involved in giving radiotherapy treatment to cancer patients. Radiographers who can also perform the ultrasound test are known as sonographers .


In India , the average starting salary of a radiographer ranges between Rs. 7,000 – Rs. 10,000 per month in government/private hospitals. However, earnings are more in private practice as compared to salaried jobs.
