      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      There are many different types and brands of imaging equipment out there. While all very similar, some equipment may have a higher learning curve than others. The interviewer would like to know more about the specific imaging equipment you are experienced with to determine if you will need additional training if hired. Be specific and include your years of experience along with your skill level. Using words like beginner, intermediate, advanced, and expert can help the interviewer to understand your skill level further. You can then ask what types of machines are used in their facility. Be sure to mention how you are a quick learner if you require training on their machines.

      "I have experience with a wide range of equipment. I was trained on the GE 1.5T equipment and I worked with it for about 6 years. I also have a good grasp of Siemens equipment which is actually my most recently acquired hands-on knowledge of MRI equipment. I did have a beginner idea on Philips. Please what equipment do you use here, I will take time to study it."
