State Licensure
Many of the states currently have licensing laws covering the practice of radiologic
technology. Although the ARRT exam is a voluntary certification exam, states use the
ARRT exam scores in licensing decisions.
Both Iowa and Illinois have licensure. These states will give you a license to work
as a radiologic technologist if you are registered with the ARRT. In order to keep
your license current, you will need to practice continuing education. (24 hours Bi-annually
are required).
American Society of Radiologic Technology
The ASRT is the only nationally recognized professional society representing all
radiologic technologists in the United States today. One of the primary reasons the
ASRT was organized was to be able to present educational opportunities to the technologists
of the United States.
