Hi, I am going to graduate in May as a cardiac sonographer, ARDMS Registered Diagnostic Cardiac Sonographer (RDCS). According to my community college's MRI program website, I meet all application requirement except for:
ARRT Certificate – Current certification as a radiologic technologist through the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists. (ARDMS, American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonographers and NMTCB, Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board certifications are acceptable substitutes.)
- Which I would meet after I graduate in May as I'll be registered by ARDMS.
The ARRT primary requirements for MRI seems to be this page: https://www.arrt.org/pages/earn-arrt-credentials/initial-requirements/primary-requirements
So I just want to confirm, I don't need to be a radiologic technologist (ARRT RT) as I can substitute that with my ARDMS RDCS? What else do I need to do to become an MRI technologist for the ARRT? Since it seems straightforward from what I need to do for the community college portion.
I reached out to the program director, just figured I'd ask here in the meantime if anyone has any knowledge or experience with going from ultrasound to MRI.
