A radiologist is a doctor who specializes in the interpretation of medical images such as MR scans, CT scans, radiographs, nuclear medicine scans, mammograms and sonograms.
A radiologic technologist or radiographer is the x-ray tech - the person who takes the x-rays for the radiologist to read.
Radiology is the branch of medicine that uses radiation for the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
Radiography is the process by which radiographs (x-rays) are made.
The radiologist is a doctor so he or she makes a lot more money.

Radiography is x-ray and is just one part of radiology. Radiology also includes sonography, mammography, nuclear medicine, bone densitometry, CT, MRI, PET, and probably a few more I'm not thinking of at the moment.
