The MGHS School of Radiography is a six-semester, two-year program
divided into theory and clinical experience components. Academic
courses are completed at Marquette General and Northern Michigan
University.
The curriculum includes essential courses in anatomy, physiology,
pathology, radiation biology and protection, radiation physics,
patient care, anatomy and procedures, diagnostic imaging equipment,
imaging processes and computer operation.
A radiographer or diagnostic imager is a healthcare professional
who utilizes ionizing radiation to produce images of the body’s
internal structures. A radiologist then views these images for
diagnosis of disease or injury.
The MGHS School of Radiography is accredited with the Joint Review
Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology.
