They are basically the same thing, but the proper term is radiologic technologist, not technician. Radiology technologist could refer to a specific field other than x-ray, such as CT, MRT, etc.
As far as pay, it varies a lot. Check out the ASRT 2004 Wage and Salary Survey: http://www.asrt.org/content/RTs/SurveyResults/WageandSalarySurvey/WageSalSurvey2004.aspx

Radiology tech is a very sturdy spot. I even have well-known particularly some. the sphere is increasing to new machines, previous purely X-ray. Now, those techs function MRI, CTscan, puppy test, angiography, and so on. And there are new ones to be invented (sometime quickly the X ray laser...). Nursing is a sturdy field, and the nurses are in extreme call for. i think of Radiology Tech demands extra scientific learn, and an inherent ability working machines and computers. (the computers are used to view digital photographs) many human beings do no longer purely like the technical part, meaning there are fewer radiation techs and the pay is extra ideal. verify in case you like the technologies. in case you do, then, i think of, Radiation Tech is the extra ideal deal (Roy C, former CT Engineer)

The salary/remuneration for a particular job is the market value for a particular profession and designation at the city/town where the office is located. Job postings at websites like Monster, Yahoo HotJobs and Careerbuilder carry information about salaries. The Govt Dept of Labor, (www.bls.gov) Bureau of statistics has information about median salaries for different professions and details of additional compensation offered. Other online resources are salary.com and payscale. Your salary will also depend on your educational qualification and how you handle your career.
