Recent contributions have highlighted the need for research based 
development and that this requires effort and, I suggest, money. The

approach which may be productive

ASRT fund issues grants for RA programs
2/3/03

The research and education fund of the American Society of Radiologic 
Technologists has awarded $25,000 grants to each of four schools in order to 
launch radiologist assistant (RA) programs. The four institutions, which 
were chosen out of thirteen applicants, are Loma Linda University in Loma 
Linda, CA; Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, TX; University of 
Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey in Newark; and the University of North 
Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Students in RA programs will complete a standardized curriculum at the 
baccalaureate level or higher. The academic program will be supplemented by 
a formal clinical preceptorship with a supervising radiologist in order to 
acquire hands-on skills.

The grants are administered through the Albuquerque-based ASRT Research and 
Education Fund.
