A radiologic technologist does not get constant radiation. As a matter of fact, we get little if any more than anyone else. We are behind a lead lined wall when exposures are taken, or are protected by a lead apron when in the room.
School is generally 40 hours per week for 2 years.
Salary varies greatly depending on where you live, what type of facility you work for, etc.

There is not a "butt load" of math, and it does not affect your ability to have children.
