    I got this info fron the US department of labor, see source links.
    “Job prospects are expected to be good. Job openings will result from employment growth and from the need to replace workers who retire or leave the occupation for other reasons. Applicants who are certified should have the best opportunities.”
    Median annual earnings of wage-and-salary radiation therapists were $66,170 in May 2006. The middle 50 percent earned between $54,170 and $78,550. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $44,840, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $92,110. Median annual earnings in the industries that employed the largest numbers of radiation therapists in May 2006 are as follows:
    Outpatient care centers $73,810
    Offices of physicians 70,050
    General medical and surgical hospitals 63,580
    Some employers also reimburse their employees for the cost of continuing education.
