The Ohio Society of Radiologic Technologists (OSRT) represents medical imaging personnel throughout Ohio, advocates for disciplines within the practice and promotes quality patient care.

Radiologic technologists are health care/medical personnel who perform diagnostic imaging procedures and administer radiation therapy treatments. They are educated and certified in the disciplines in which they work. In diagnostic medical imaging, disciplines include specialized work in a specific imaging discipline, such as bone densitometry, cardiovascular-interventional radiography, computed tomography, mammography, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear medicine, quality management, sonography or general radiography. Radiologic technologists who specialize in radiation therapy are part of the radiation oncology team and are called radiation therapists. In collaboration with a radiation oncologist (physician), radiation therapists apply therapeutic doses of radiation to treat cancer and other diseases. Some therapists advance their certifications in treatment planning and are known as medical dosimetrists.

The OSRT Board of Directors and its Legislative Lobbyist have engaged in thoughtful and heartfelt discussions about diversity, equity, and inclusion. We understand that recent changes on college campuses, within healthcare settings, and with the current political climate may have left some feeling unsettled or concerned. We remain unwavering in our commitment to one of our core values--Inclusion (see below). We deeply value the richness of human diversity and honor the unique perspectives that professional diversity brings to our field and to our patients. OSRT embraces every student and technologist with warmth, respect, and a sincere desire to provide the support that is needed and deserved. The work that we do together is not always easy, because we represent more than RTs and RTTs. We draw strength from our shared humanity, knowing that compassion, understanding, and unity will guide us forward.
