Medical Radiation Technologists (MRTs) are vital health care professionals who specialize in all things diagnostic from x-rays, mammograms, CT scans, MRIs and much more.
Nova Scotia currently has an MRT shortage, so it’s more important than ever to get students interested in this rewarding career early!
In partnership with Siemens Healthineers, Discovery Centre will be hosting Inside Story – MRT Day with experts from Dalhousie University’s School of Health Sciences, NS Health and IWK Health to share the important work being done, and the future of, MRT professionals.
It will be a hands-on day with lots of learning!
Junior High students are the perfect age to learn what this career offers.
To book tickets, select admission for November 7th. All activities are included in general admission.
