Was lerne ich in einer MTRA-Ausbildung zur Radiologiefachfrau HF / zum Radiologiefachmann HF?
What do I learn in an MTRA training course to become a radiology specialist CHE?
The MTRA training course to become a radiology specialist CHE provides comprehensive theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of medical radiology. The aim is to be prepared for work in hospitals or radiology institutes - whether in diagnostics, therapy or patient care.
The content of the training is divided into three main areas:
- Diagnostic radiology
In this area, the focus is on imaging procedures for the examination of bones, organs, vessels and nerve tracts. Various technologies are used, including X-rays, digital radiography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Radiology specialists create these images independently and contribute to diagnostic decision-making. - Radiation oncology
This involves the therapeutic use of radiation to treat cancer. The tasks include the preparation, implementation and monitoring of radiotherapy according to medical orders, often over a period of several weeks. Radiation planning is also an important part of the job. - Nuclear medicine
In nuclear medicine, radioactive substances are used specifically to make diseases visible. Radiology specialists prepare these substances in the laboratory and administer them in small quantities. With the help of special measuring devices, the function, position and size of organs are visualized.
In addition to the three main areas, the course teaches important scientific principles. These include, among others:
- Anatomy
- Pathology
- Psychology
- medical informatics
- Psychosociology
- Radiological physics
- Radiation protection
These subjects provide the necessary understanding of the human body, medical contexts and the safe handling of technology and radiation.
The training is broadly based and prepares students specifically for a varied, responsible career in the healthcare sector. Anyone with an interest in technology, medicine and direct contact with people will find a future-proof and meaningful career here.
