Witch is better surgical technologist or rad tech .
Whichever one you prefer and sounds more interesting to you.
Radiologic technologists make quite a bit more money. The average salary for a radiologic or MRI technologist is about $58,000, while the average salary for a surgical technologist is around $44,000.
But surgical technologists also need less schooling. You can become a surgical technologist with a postsecondary certificate, which usually only takes a few months. Radiologic technologists need an associate’s degree.
