What careers in the health care industry also deal with technology?

I'm looking into medical imaging (CT, MRI etc) technician or anything similar.

I already have a non related Bachelor's degree, so nothing that would take too long to study.

CT would be a good direction to go into. You need to have graduated radiography, Nuclear Medicine, or Radiation Therapy, or be a registered Ultrasonographer first before you attack CT,as well as MRI. I think the radiography program is a 3 year w/ clinical rotation at the end at an institution like the Michener Institute, but not 100% sure. From CT, you could venture into CT/SPECT (nuclear Medicine), MRI, or PET imaging. I work in Nuclear Medicine, but am already trained in CT, and am going into MRI within the next year or so (unless a new job prospect that I interviewed for yesterday goes well!!!). If you have any question, feel free to PM me!!!
