Radiographer Jobs in the NHS

NHS radiographer posts split into two distinct professions: diagnostic radiographers who produce and interpret medical images (X-ray, CT, MRI, ultrasound), and therapeutic radiographers who plan and deliver radiotherapy for cancer patients. Both start at Band 5 for newly qualified roles and can progress to advanced practitioner or reporting roles, but they require separate degree programmes and different clinical pathways.
