The meeting of the Advisory Board on Radiologic Technology scheduled for June of 2020
was cancelled, so the matter was on the agenda for its meeting on October 7, 2020.
At that time, the Advisory Board considered the pros and cons of amending its regulations
and recommended that the Board of Medicine take no action on the petition at this
time. The Advisory Board would like to gather additional information and continue
the discussion of the merits of the petition.
