What is the purpose of setting up medical imaging technology specialty in China?

Medical imaging technology is the name of medical specialty. In 2006, China issued a policy to teach the same major in two different academic years, in order to keep up with some developed countries in the west. The purpose of training four-year students is to specialize in technical work in the future, while the purpose of training five-year students is to engage in diagnosis and treatment in the future. We can't deny the practice of the country, because the trend of the times is that it is really necessary to separate talents from all walks of life and specialize in a certain profession, so that society can make continuous progress. Students majoring in medical imaging technology mainly study the basic theoretical knowledge of basic medicine, clinical medicine and medical imaging, receive basic training in conventional radiology, CT, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultrasound medicine, DSA and nuclear medicine, and have the ability to diagnose and treat diseases by means of imaging diagnostics and interventional medicine. Work direction: technical posts of medical imaging examination and radiotherapy in hospitals at all levels. Medical imaging technology is the work of medical imaging diagnostician or medical imaging technician.
