MRI Tech Jobs — MRI Technologist

MRI technologist roles

MRI technologists operate magnetic resonance imaging scanners, which use a strong magnetic field and radio waves — not ionizing radiation — to produce detailed images of soft tissue. The work involves choosing and running pulse sequences, positioning coils and patients, and administering gadolinium-based contrast when it is ordered.

Because MRI exams are longer and more sequence-driven than many other modalities, employers value technologists who can balance image quality, patient comfort, and throughput across a varied exam mix.

MRI safety is central to the role

The MRI magnet is always on, so safety screening is a core, non-negotiable duty. Technologists screen patients, staff, and belongings for ferromagnetic hazards and implanted devices, and they enforce the zoned access model that keeps the magnet room controlled.

Careful implant and device screening — and knowing when an item is unsafe or requires special handling — is one of the most important responsibilities an MRI technologist carries.

Credentials and settings

MRI roles commonly expect ARRT certification with the MR credential (often built on primary ARRT(R)), or an equivalent pathway such as ARMRIT, plus any state license that applies and current BLS. MRI technologists work in hospitals and freestanding outpatient MRI centers, across day, evening, and weekend shifts, and many openings are travel or contract assignments.

Frequently asked questions

How many MRI Tech jobs are available right now?
There are currently 145 active MRI technologist jobs on RadiologyJobs.com. The count updates as employers post new openings and expired listings drop off.
What does an MRI technologist do?
An MRI technologist operates magnetic resonance imaging scanners, selects and runs the imaging sequences, positions patients and coils, administers contrast when ordered, and — critically — screens everyone and everything entering the magnet room for safety.
What certifications do MRI Tech jobs typically require?
Most roles look for ARRT registration with the MR credential (commonly built on primary ARRT(R)) or an equivalent route such as ARMRIT, plus any applicable state license and current BLS. Confirm the exact requirements on each individual listing.
How is an MRI Tech role different from a CT Tech role?
MRI uses magnetic fields and radio waves rather than ionizing radiation, so the day-to-day work centers on sequence selection and, above all, rigorous magnetic-safety screening for implants and ferromagnetic objects. CT, by contrast, is X-ray based and emphasizes radiation-dose management.
