Can I work as MRI Tech w/ ARRT(MR) but no ARRT(R)? |
Hello,
I am a nuclear medicine technologist (NMTCB, ARRT(N))who has the chance to get MRI training OTJ. If I complete the 120 MRI procedures at my job that the ARRT requires in order to meet my clinical competency, then the ARRT will allow me to sit for the ARRT(MRI) examination without any additional education as a post-secondary pathway.
My question regards being hired: is it possible to get hired with an ARRT(N) and ARRT(MRI) to do MRI? Can the ARRT(N) be substituted for the ARRT(R) which it seems many if not most if not all places seem to want you to have (I have only looked at a few ads, but this seems to be true...)
Do hiring managers look more favorably on an MRI tech with ARRT(MRI) vs. just ARRT(R)?
Any information would be most appreciated!
Thanks!
