Does radiation affect the radiology technician's body?

The simple answer is yes, but the exposures the RT receives are monitored so that the RT doesn't approach what is considered by the radiation safety community to be hazardous levels of exposure. What the RT will probably receive is a chronic, low level exposure to radiation (unlike the acute, high levels that we hear about in radiation bombings, accidents, and poisonings). In the US, the whole body limit is 5000 mrem per year (50 mSv/yr). The RT typically never approaches this level of whole body exposure. The radiology area where the RT will get the most exposure is in the fluoroscopy suite, the nuclear medicine technologist in the PET imaging area, and the radiation therapist in the brachytherapy application. The RT should be schooled in the concepts of time, distance, and shielding in order to keep their exposures as low as reasonably achievable. The pregnant RT is limited even further, to 500 mrem/yr (0.5 mSv/yr). This is to protect the relatively radiosensitive fetus from undue exposure. For more information, you may want to go to www.nrc.gov and look for 10cfr20. Gregory G. Passmore, Ph.D., CNMT
