REGULATED PROFESSIONS

The Alberta College of Medical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technologists regulates five distinct professional groups called specialties, which fall under two umbrella groups:

  • Medical Radiation Technologists (MRTs)

  • Electroneurophysiology Technologists (ENPs)

We protect the public by ensuring that any individual practicing as an MRT or ENP in Alberta is qualified and accountable to professional ethics and practice standards.

SPECIALTIES

Magnetic resonance technologists (MRI technologists, MRT(MR)) produce diagnostic images using equipment that generates radio waves and a strong magnetic field.

Nuclear medicine technologists (MRT(N)) use radiopharmaceuticals and radiation physics to perform diagnostic imaging procedures.
Radiation therapists (MRT(T)) are responsible for accurately planning and administering radiation treatment for cancer patients.
Radiological technologists (MRT(R)) use equipment that produces radiation to obtain images such as X-rays, CT scans and mammograms

Electroneurophysiology Technologists (ENP) perform electroencephalograms (EEGs) and/or evoked potential (EP) examinations.
