Radiation therapists operate machines called linear accelerators, which are used to deliver radiation therapy. These machines direct high-energy x-rays at specific cancer cells in a patient's body, shrinking or removing them.
Radiation therapists are part of the oncology team that treats patients with cancer.
This program is an articulated 3-1 agreement with Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas. Upon completing all program requirements in Medical Imaging/Radiography at Mount Aloysius College and successfully passing the national certification exam, students can apply to Washburn University. The radiation therapy courses at Washburn University are offered online and are a 13-month program.
Once the certification program is completed, the student will be granted a Bachelor's Degree from Mount Aloysius College and a certificate from Washburn University.
Students complete the Associate of Science in Medical Imaging during the first two years, then complete the prerequisites and core requirements for the articulation in their junior year.
