Overview
The year-long course through Grady's School of Radiation Therapy provides students who satisfactorily complete the program with eligibility for certification through the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT).
Students enrolled in the program rotate to our department's various photon campuses to complete the clinical requirements for eligibility to take the national certification exam with AART.
