NTRTS is important for me because it promotes the radiology profession. I would encourage everyone to visit the ASRT website and learn about the CARE Bill that we are lobbying on Capitol Hill right now. Together we can stand and affirm our licensure. Our future as radiology professionals depends upon us.

I am very excited and honored to be elected to the NTRTS Board for 2011-12. Last year I served as Student Liaison where I led the planning and facilitation of the Student Rally at the TSRT 2011 Annual Meeting. We had over 200 students attend and learn the value of a professional society. I produced a video from that rally that will be used to encourage radiologic students from North Texas to join NTRTS. Our organization is blessed to have an excellent leadership team and an active membership. I look forward to working with this team, and our members, to advance the radiologic sciences profession over the coming year.

Clinical CoordinatorProfessional societies are important to me because they serve to keep fellow professionals abreast of the issues and concerns of the general body. NTRTS, local societies. state societies, and the national society all serve a professional function by setting policies, talking with representatives, and providing what is needed in the form of continuing education. We, as radiographers have a tendency to become complacent once we graduate and find a job. Our societies and the men and women who volunteer to pick-up the slack for us give their best efforts to present us. It is noted that any occupational field which considers itself to be a “profession” has a society somewhere to address their issues. It will take the efforts of every diagnostic imager (no matter the modality) to elevate this profession.
And, we are professionals!!!!!

I am looking forward to promoting our profession. I want to help increase membership and make more technologists aware of the issues that face our profession in the future. Membership is also a great way of networking for professional advancement.

I am working on my Master's in Radiologic Sciences at Midwestern State University
I joined the local society in 2008, my first year in the Radiologic Program at MSU. I want to increase membership by finding out what it is that technologists want and need from our society.

Current Job: Senior Radiologic Technologist
Our profession is so fragmented and largely unorganized. We have let others decide our future for us for too long. Please get involved. Radiologic Technology has been good to me and I want to promote our profession. NTRTS is one of the best means of promoting our profession that has come along in a while. We need to take advantage of it.
Jane Breaux, Student Liaison
Years as an NTRTS Member: 1 year
I am a second year Radiologic Technology student at Tarrant County College and I am excited to be involved in the promotion of our profession through my involvement in NTRTS. As a future technologist, I think it is important to maintain, regulate, and improve the standards of our profession for current and future RT’s. Student involvement in NTRTS is important in laying a good foundation for professional growth and gaining knowledge from experienced RT’s.

I think it is very important that all technologist should be members and support their local societies. I want to help increase the membership in NTRTS.
