What Does a Radiation Therapist Do? Unlike radiologic technologists who utilize x-rays for diagnostic purposes, radiation therapists are trained to deliver high doses of ionizing radiation to specific areas of the patientâs body for the treatment of disease, specifically cancer.

They often work with the following specialists: Radiation oncologists, physicians who specialize in radiation therapy. Oncology nurses, registered nurses who specialize in caring for patients with cancer. Medical physicists, physicists who help in planning of radiation treatments and help to develop better and safer radiation therapies.
