I have a chance to get into the program by the summer, but from what I'm hearing it's already a bad idea and everything seems pretty anecdotical at the moment. It's all very conflicting information because that's what is best. I was already kind of wary about doing this course in the first place, just don't know if I really want to do this. But is it really a bad choice of for a career?

If you're looking for a mid five figure job that you can get with only an associates degree/certificate program that is relatively stable in terms of employment prospects and isn't completely mindless, radiology tech is a good option. Software companies that do medical software also like having people with tech backgrounds doing stuff like designing the software.

Okay that makes sense... Would it be any better or worse than say Respiratory Therapy?

I have friends that are Respiratory Therapists and their jobs seem to require much more hands-on and invasive patient care. For instance, in some (most?) hospitals it's the RTs that are the ones that stick needles in patients' arteries to get arterial blood gas readings...uh gently caress THAT. You also have to care for patients with tracheostomies, google "tracheostomy sputum" for some vomit inducing material, and maintain patients on ventilator machines. Gun to my head, I'd choose Radiology Tech over Respiratory Therapist but I admittedly don't have any personal experience with either profession.
