This is an anonymous forum, with all that entails. There are no qualitifications for posting, no requirements for legitimacy. A user can post correct or incorrect information (and they do, frequently). Opinion may be disguised as fact.

As with the entire internet, the caveat is on the viewer, not the poster. Viewers must be cautious about accepting what they read here - those posting may or may not know anything about the subject.

The moderators are here to keep porn and other trash off the site, to see that there is no bloodshed, and to do the best they can correct obvious misinformation and guide neophytes to legitimate sources of information (because some of what is posted here is nonsense).

Accepting that, everyone is welcome.

hjh, RT

wvaio, please do not lecture me about integrity, and or professionalism.

As hjh acknowledged previously, it is, of course, completely up to the individual poster on whether or not he/she wishes to cite references here.

Not doing so on a web forum such as this, certainly isn't 'unprofessional' and does in no way whatsoever 'tarnish' the boards integrity.

Grow up, and take your student remarks elsewhere.

Hjh is very correct.While this is an anonymous message board, it should still be necessary to quote a source when quoting verbatim. Carlton and Adler spent their time, effort, and energy to write the text in the book and should be credited for such. Not doing so questions the integrity of the forum and is unprofessional. Please give credit where credit is due. Everyone would want the same consideration.

jalannom:

I'm not very familiar with ARMRIT. Most of the MRI Techs I know seem to be Reg. w/ARRT. It seems most of the employers in the northeast want ARRT Reg and I'm NOT SURE if ARMRIT would be acceptable.

Try giving some potential employers a call and see what they are looking for.

You might also want to check out the ARRT website (www.arrt.org) or give them a call for more info. about both MRI and Radiology Cert. requirements.

Good Luck! Shocked

Right now, in the northeast, I'd say employment opportunities are limited for most Rad Techs with only a few Per Diem jobs around.

Of course, when you're done w/school in 3 1/2 years, things may be very different.

Are you willing to travel/move? If so, that may be a good thing.
Do you NEED a full time job w/benefits? If not, then doing a couple Per Diem jobs might work out very well for you.

Check out the ASRT and Advance websites as they usually have nationwide job listings. You should also keep an eye on the websites of your local employers (ie. hospitals, outpatient centers, etc.)

Good luck and don't give up! Rolling Eyes
