CHAPTER
1: The Medical Radiation Technology Licensing Rules

PURPOSE: These rules cover the licensing, examination, and conduct of
all persons who apply ionizing radiation to human beings for diagnostic
or therapeutic purposes, except those specifically exempted by statute.
Licensure eligibility, examination requirements, and fees are included
in these rules. Provisions may be added pertinent to the staff review
of applications. The Board may repeal existing fee provisions in the
event that OLR establishes fees for this board directly pursuant to
10 M.R.S.A. §8003(2-A)(D) and Chapter 10 of the rules of the Office
of Licensing and Registration. It may also substitute "Bone Densitometry"
for "Absorptiometry" in the Definitions Section.

accreditation, the rules may be revised to substitute this standard
for that applied by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic
Technology.
