Legislation

The Importance of Legislation

The SDSRT and ASRT are committed to the implementation of consistent state and national education and certification standards for medical imaging and radiation therapy technical personnel. In addition, we work with other organizations to push federal lawmakers to make sure radiologic science facility accreditation standards include imaging-modality specific certification requirements and continuing education requirements for technical personnel who work in those facilities. 

History

South Dakota is one of a handful of remaining states that do not have state licensure requirements in support of the Radiologic Sciences in South Dakota.  Historically we have participated in a national approach that sought legislation to introduce federal minimum educational requirements in order to practice in the Radiologic Sciences.  This initiative has been unsuccessful, so we've turned our focus to working on achieving support for these standards at the state level.  

We believe...

  • quality imaging is a vitally important element in the care and treatment of our patients. 
  • proper education, professional standards and clinical competency are key components in ensuring patient safety and quality imaging.
  • the rules and regulations within the laws of the State of South Dakota must support these components to ensure quality, diagnostic imaging and care for the citizens of South Dakota.
