The American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) is a professional membership association that serves medical imaging technologists, radiation therapists, and radiologic science students.^[1] The organization, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico provides its members with ongoing education and professional development opportunities.

ASRT makes provision for members to specialize in various areas of radiologic technology such as computed tomography, mammography, magnetic resonance imaging, and nuclear medicine. The organization also monitors state and federal legislation that may impact the profession, and works closely with other organizations to establish standards of practice and develop educational curricula.

ASRT is governed by an elected Board of Directors and a House of Delegates, and has affiliate relationships with 54 state or local societies. These affiliated societies operate independently, but ASRT provides them with assistance and guidance upon request.

ASRT provides radiologic technologists with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to provide quality patient care. The organization's efforts to promote professional development, support legislative advocacy, and establish standards of practice make it a respected and trustworthy resource for radiologic technologists.
