1 University of Michigan Flint Bachelor of Science in Radiation Therapy B.S., R.T.(T) What does this degree prepare me to do? This four-year degree prepares you to become a competent and caring radiation therapist. What does a radiation therapist do? A radiation therapist is a caregiver. Radiation therapists deliver direct patient care to patients receiving radiation therapy. Radiation therapists are part of a multidisciplinary team that treats patients who have cancer using radiation. Radiation therapists follow the directions of a doctor -a radiation oncologist, who specializes in using radiation to treat cancer. Is working with radiation safe? Working as a radiation therapist is perfectly safe. Many female therapists get pregnant and work until delivery time. All personnel in the radiation oncology department wear monitor badges that will show radiation exposure if it occurs. It is very rare that any exposure is recorded. When exposure is recorded it is usually because a badge fell off and was in the treatment room when the radiation beam was on. Therapists are never in the treatment room when the beam is on. There are numerous safeguards in a radiation oncology department that prevent accidental exposure and to reduce any exposure at all. Where do radiation therapists work? Many hospitals, cancer centers, and privately owned clinics have radiation oncology departments. Radiation therapists are not the technologists who work in the emergency room or the doctor s office taking chest x-rays. Radiation therapists treat patients using radiation. Radiation therapists do not diagnose illnesses using radiation, x-ray technologists do that. Radiation therapists are highly trained professionals who work with very technical equipment to deliver high doses of radiation to a well-defined location within the patient. Radiation therapists can work in any state and even outside of the United States. Some states require a license in addition to being nationally registered. Upon graduation from the RTT program students are eligible to take the national registry examination. Students must pass this exam to work as a radiation therapist. What is the typical salary for an entry-level radiation therapist? It depends on the geographic location. In southeast Michigan the average annual salary for an entry-level position ranges from about $54,000-58,000 (2007). Revised
2 University of Michigan Flint- Department of Radiation Therapy (RTT) 2102 W.S. White Building (810) FAX (810) Director: Kelly A. Brown, MPA, RT(T) (810) Secretaries: Karen Curtis Dianne Scrimger (810) (810) The Bachelor of Science in Radiation Therapy is a four-year, 127 credit, baccalaureate degree program. Upon successful completion of the program requirements, the graduate is eligible to take the radiation therapy certification examination given by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT). The profession of Radiation Therapy involves the use of high-energy radiation in the treatment of disease, primarily cancer. Radiation therapy may be used alone or in combination with surgery and chemotherapy. As a team member, the radiation therapist administers the radiation to the exact area of the patient's body as prescribed by a physician. In order to effectively treat the patients, various types of equipment are utilized, such as high-energy linear accelerators. In addition, radiation therapists monitor the patient's progress while they are receiving radiation therapy, observe the patients for signs of complications, and determine when treatment should be withheld until a physician is consulted. The structure of the Radiation Therapy program includes two years of general education requirements and pre-professional courses. The professional program begins in the summer of the junior year and continues for 22 consecutive months through April of the senior year. The didactic classes in the junior year are taught on the University of Michigan-Flint campus. Didactic classes taught in the senior year, are held at the University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor. The clinical practicum begins September of the junior year. Juniors attend clinic on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00am -3:30pm. Seniors attend Monday-Friday from 7:00am to 3:30pm in the spring and summer and in the Fall and Winter semester on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 7:00am to 3:30pm. The student is required to do one week of early shift to learn quality assurance procedures in RTT 403, 404 and 405. The student will never exceed forty hours of combined classroom and clinical time per week. University of Michigan-Flint students applying to the program can obtain an application by contacting the Program Office, 2102 W.S. White Building. The Radiation Therapy Program Director must receive completed applications, including all references by May 1 of the calendar year of the intended summer semester enrollment. Students will be admitted in the summer term only. In order to be admitted to the program all prerequisite courses must be successfully completed. Students applying to the program who are not UM-Flint students at the time of application must also submit a completed UM-Flint application including any transfer transcripts, indicating "Radiation Therapy" as the proposed field of study. Forms to apply for admission to the University are available from the Office of Admissions, from the Program Director, and also online at Revised
3 All qualified applicants will be invited to interview with the Admissions Committee. However, should the number of applications to the program far exceed the number of positions available the program's Admissions Committee reserves the right to limit the number of interviewed applicants to two times the number of positions available in the class.
