Abstract:
The training program of radiation therapists in the United States has been established early, and the mode of training, qualification and continuing education are relatively complete. Literature review was conducted at home and abroad and United States Department of Labor, American Registry of Radiologic Technologists, American Society of Radiologic Technologists as well as Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology websites were reviewed. The training mode, qualification, work content, continuing education and employment situation of American radiotherapists were analyzed, aiming to provide some reference and enlightenment for the establishment of a new model for the training of professional radiologists suitable for the national conditions of China Mainland.
