Sonographer to MRI technologist?

By

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.

AI for radiology - A survey

By
Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
