In this episode, Tina chats with Grace Finn and Colette Keohane, who are both CT radiographers and practice educators at the North Central London Imaging Academy. We explore CT radiography – a form of imaging that uses X-rays and computer technology to create detailed 3D images of the body.
Grace and Colette share their journeys into radiography, what a typical day in CT looks like, and the skills involved in working with patients, from cannulation to communication. They discuss the challenges and rewards of the role, proudest achievements – including award-winning simulation training – and their passion for education.
As well as comparing their different routes into radiography and sharing practical career advice, Grace and Colette reflect on why CT is such a varied specialty, the growing role of AI, and exciting opportunities in the UK and internationally.
