What Radiographer work looks like in practice
A radiographer performs diagnostic imaging or radiotherapy procedures while verifying identity, justification, exposure parameters and equipment readiness. The contract should identify modality, registration, shift or on-call requirements, radiation governance, contrast or medicine authority and continuing competency.

Perform examinations within verified competence.
Apply authorised exposure and safety controls.
Assess image quality before completing attendance.
