Market context
In California, PET/CT technologists are typically in demand where imaging volumes are steady and employers need clinicians who can work independently with advanced nuclear medicine equipment. This role is competitive because it calls for radiology experience, formal AMA-approved training, and the required NMTCB and/or A.R.R.T.(N) credentials, with a related bachelor’s degree preferred.
