In London, UK the rates are pretty good. Newly qualified start at about 40,000 USD and the most senior consultant radiographers reach a ceiling of about 96,000 USD.

I'd suggest Houston.  I'm in the medical field as well, and have moved away a few times, but keep coming back because Houston has by far the best career opportunites of places I've been.  Cost of living is much lower than other large cities.  You can buy a 3 BR house for under 150K.  Houston has the largest consolidated medical center in the US, and there are over 80 hospitals in the city, including several large teaching institutions.  Winters are very mild, though the summers are pretty hot.  You're less than an hour from the beach, and there are some fantastic restaurants here.

If you like computers, then any of the computer fields would be good.\nIf you have any interest in medicine, the medical field is always good. How about a radiological technologist (x-ray tech)?

These are surveys, so they are going to give you a range. But physician compensation is highly variable. A good deal depends on area of the country they practice in. Some have high pay, but very high malpractice premiums. Also, how doctors are "paid" really varies by the type of practice. i.e. solo practitioner, group practice, employed (like Kaiser), etc. They can have a base salary (which may be what is reported in these surveys) but they can have teaching stipends, risk pools, incentives, etc. \n\nHere in  northern California, orthopedists and neurosurgeons seem to command the highest compensation.\n\nSurveys are a good place to start, but don't tell the whole story. \n\nBut if you're going for radiology, become an interventionalist--they rake in the dough, like $250-300k depending on experience.

Although I can't speak specifically about Brisbane, private hospitals almost always pay more than government operated ones.  This applies to other institutions as well.

In the midwest it is typically anwywhere from 8.50 to 10.00 an hour depending on where you live and what type of clinic you start out in.\n\nIf you want a better idea for the starting range in your area, I would go to a job search site like Monster.com and do a search, a lot of times they will have the salary to be paid on there.

Yes, you need to become an X-ray technician first. You will have to go to school for two years for that to learn about medical terminology, basic radiation physics, and photographic imaging techniques and chemistry. It gives you an opportunity to work under doctors performing complicated procedures. Starting salary for this is $24,000 a year but you can work up to $65,000 a year. You will need further training to become an ultrasound tech, so you can probably expect to make a little more since this is a more specialized field. Eventually ultrasound tech will probably have its own program (won't have to be an x-ray tech first), but for now, this is the way it is. Good luck and don't let the money stop you if this is something you wanna do!!

I've heard the best place to go is India...they have some of the best doctors at a much cheaper price than in the US.

This partly depends on where you live.  In larger midwest cities (I have heard from a friend who is just graduating from sonography school) that she expects to earn in the area of $27.00 per hour once she passes her registry exam.  Clinics and hospitals often will pay different rates - you might sacrifice some pay to work in a clinic and have better hours.  If you want to go into management later you will probably want to get your bachelors degree.

Many patients travel from United States of America and UK to get low cost of IMRT surgery in India. One of the most frequently asked questions when considering IMRT surgery is "how much?" and “what is the price of surgery in India?”\n\nOftentimes, patients choose their surgeon on the basis of price. \nThe cost of IMRT surgery is very affordable in India and costs are much lower when compared to the United States, UK and other countries. However, since the success of your surgery is largely dependent on your choice of surgeon, cost should not be your main consideration for your decision to undergo IMRT surgery in India.\n\nI checked out the website of Forerunners Healthcare –which is the premier most medical tourism company in India offering low cost surgery in India to International Patients. They have served more than 400 International patients from across the globe (specially US and UK) to get low cost affordable surgery in India at the best Hospitals and Medical Institutions. And the general price of the IMRT surgery is as follows-\n\nThe Cost of IMRT surgery in India is $ 2,200.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\n\nIn India, any licensed medical doctor can perform IMRT surgery. To avoid unsatisfactory results, it is best to choose a surgeon who has completed an accredited residency-training program in IMRT surgery. He should have extensive experience in the procedure you will undergo. That’s when Forerunners Healthcare come into picture-helping you get the best surgeon for your surgery at the most affordable prices in the best Hospitals of India.\n\nYour surgeon's skill can make all the difference between a good and an average result. Thus, although it is understandable that price is one of the considerations in your choice of surgeon, it is important to remember that the main consideration should be your surgeon's professional qualifications and experience.\n\nBesides that you should look into other issues related to traveling abroad, which is your visa, passport, climate, cultural issues and language barrier. Although language is not a problem in India –as most of the people are well verse in English. But you should make sure that you have a reliable hand holding person to guide you through the various steps of getting medical treatment and surgery in India.\n\nHope this helps.

pharmacy, suprisingly, pays pretty well. i recommend business or economics if you dont want something so specialized.
