Answer:
I am an x-ray tech and you make under 20 to start 15+ out of school.
The work is hard, MRI tech do on the job training and get paid a little more.
Yes, you need to become an x-ray tech and then the hospitals normally train you from within and promote from within.
I have worked in IL, MO, and now FL as an x-ray tech.
