Advocate in our Profession…

As an affiliate of the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT), the ISSRT is the organization dedicated to the Radiologic Science professional, reflecting the concerns and spirit of thousands of Illinois technologists and students.
The ISSRT works in conjunction with the ASRT and surrounding state affiliates to monitor, and act as necessary, on issues regarding patient safety as it relates to licensure. Illinois is one of a number of states that has comprehensive licensure requirements for anyone performing medical imaging and radiation therapy procedures.
With the ever-changing political state in our country and state, the safeguards that have been put into place change suddenly and drastically. Recent moves have been to eliminate licensure and allow unqualified, uneducated individuals to perform medical imaging. This is in direct opposition to our affiliate mission and goals regarding patient safety. As a member of the ISSRT, you will receive up to date alerts about potential changes and recommendations on actions to take.
