FAQs – Travel X-Ray Tech Jobs Near Birmingham, AL

Current ARRT certification and registration in Radiography, ARRT (R), and BLS are common requirements, along with a state license or certification where required. Assignments involving fluoroscopy or OR C-arm work may require an additional permit.
What X-Ray experience do I need to apply for travel X-Ray Tech jobs?
Facilities typically want recent experience working independently with the types of imaging responsibilities included in the role. Travelers should highlight the settings they have worked in, the equipment they are comfortable using, and any experience with portable imaging, emergency departments, operating rooms, or other areas outside a standard radiology department. Showing the breadth of your recent experience can help facilities determine how quickly you can step into the assignment.
Do travel X-Ray Tech jobs usually include work outside the main imaging department?
They can. Hospital-based assignments may involve portable exams, emergency department coverage, operating room imaging, or other responsibilities throughout the facility. The amount of cross-coverage varies by hospital, so it is helpful to understand where technologists are expected to work and whether any additional competencies or permits are required before accepting the assignment.

Alabama's only ACS-verified Level I adult trauma center, managing roughly 35% of the state's trauma, UAB Hospital gives CT and IR techs a high-acuity caseload at one of the largest hospitals in the U.S.
What transplant work runs at UAB Hospital?
Surgical techs and perfusionists work a specialized transplant caseload through its Comprehensive Transplant Institute, the state's leading organ transplant program.
