DART Chairman Jacob Scott, MD, DPhil, DABR, noted, "Radiologic technology is the science of using radiation to provide images of the body's bones, organs, soft tissue and blood vessels. These x-ray images, recorded on film or displayed on a video monitor, are used to diagnose disease, injury or congenital deformity. Medical imaging with radiation is an indispensable diagnostic and treatment tool, and the radiologic technologists who perform such examinations and treatments are critical to delivery of life-changing and life-saving medical care across the nation."
