CK’s Answer

I actually choose both. I went to school for Radiologic Technologist (X-ray) and worked as a Technologist for about 3 years. It was during that time that I did some work in Nuclear Medicine and found I loved it.

In this day and age I would actually suggest doing both X-ray and Nuclear Medicine. Boise State offers both and you can come out with BS in each. The advantage is Nuclear Medicine is using fusion imaging which is blending both Nuclear Medicine and Radiology images. The better your knowlegde the marketable you become.
