Updated MRI Clinical Experience Requirements Documents

Since certification examinations are required to be practice related, ARRT periodically conducts a job analysis to make certain that the certification examination content specifications and the clinical requirements remain comprehensive, accurate, and fair. ARRT, with the help of the professional community, reviews the certification documents every five years. The ARRT Board of Trustees recently approved changes to the following documents, which go into effect on January 1, 2020.

OVERVIEW OF THE MAJOR CHANGES TO THE CLINICAL EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS

  • Individual procedures were organized and retitled to match other MR documents.
  • Quality control procedures were moved to a mandatory list of MR quality control procedures.
  • The maximum number of repetitions per procedure increased from five to six. The total number of required repetitions remained at 125.
