Alberta Health is currently amending the Medical Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technologists Profession Regulation under the HPA, which will direct our college to regulate diagnostic medical sonographers (DMSs) within Alberta. Mandatory registration/regulation of DMSs will start once the regulation comes into effect.

There are regulators and associations for medical diagnostic and therapeutic technologists throughout Canada.
