CT Technologist Jobs in Tennessee: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a ct technologist in Tennessee?
You must hold an active radiologic technology license issued by the Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners, which requires completing an accredited radiologic technology program and passing the ARRT registry exam. From there, most Tennessee employers specifically require ARRT certification in CT, which you earn by passing the CT post-primary examination after accumulating the required clinical experience. Community colleges and university programs across the state offer accredited radiography pathways that meet these requirements.
How much do CT technologists make in Tennessee?
CT technologists in Tennessee earn a median of about $64,630 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $50,540 for the lowest 10% to over $90,790 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire ct technologists in Tennessee?
Employers hiring ct technologists in Tennessee right now include TriStar Health, Parkridge Health System, and Ascension, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Tennessee's concentration of large integrated health systems and regional medical centers means consistent openings appear year-round rather than in isolated bursts.
Which Tennessee cities have the most ct technologist jobs?
Chattanooga, Memphis, and Nashville have the most ct technologist openings in Tennessee. Nashville dominates because of its dense cluster of major hospital systems and outpatient imaging networks, while Memphis draws volume from large regional medical centers and its role as a mid-South healthcare hub, and Knoxville's growth in specialty care and university health services keeps its demand steady.
Are there remote ct technologist jobs in Tennessee?
Yes, but they're rare. CT technologist work is inherently hands-on, requiring direct patient contact and operation of imaging equipment, so the role is almost entirely on-site by nature. About 0% of ct technologist openings tied to Tennessee are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions are typically limited to teleradiology support, protocol development, or clinical education roles rather than direct scanning.
How can I get hired as a ct technologist in Tennessee with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is landing a general radiologic technologist position first, then cross-training into CT within a large Tennessee health system. HCA Healthcare and Vanderbilt University Medical Center both run new-graduate programs and internal cross-training tracks that allow registered radiographers to build CT hours under supervision. Holding your ARRT radiography credential and a current Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners license is the baseline every employer expects before considering a candidate for any imaging role.
Where can I find and apply to ct technologist jobs in Tennessee?
You can find and apply to ct technologist jobs in Tennessee on Migrate Mate, which lists current Tennessee openings from employers actively hiring right now. Search the available roles, find the ones that match your credentials and preferred location, and apply directly to each position.
