Reminder: ARRT Offers Free Ethics CE Credit

Earlier this year, ARRT created a Guide to Ethics in Imaging training module—and we’re offering it as a free continuing education (CE) credit to R.T.s through April 2025. Just view the video and complete a short quiz at the end.

The module has received positive feedback. “Thank you so much for this,” says Julie Otis, R.T. (R)(CT)(ARRT), MSRS, Radiology Manager at St. David’s Healthcare in Texas. “It was really beneficial to be reminded of the ethical issues my employees and I could face. Now I’m reminded of what is right and wrong, and how the ethics review process works.”

What It Covers

The training features Liana Watson, ARRT CEO; Kellie Reynolds, ARRT Vice President of Compliance; and Ann Obergfell, former ARRT Trustee and current Associate Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs and Operations at Indiana University Fort Wayne. In the video, they share their insights and expertise on the importance of ethics in imaging. 

“Our message to R.T.s is that we’re here to help,” says Watson. “This training module focuses on helping learners better understand how the principles of professional ethics connect to ARRT’s Standards of Ethics—and vice versa.”  

The training provides an overview of ARRT’s mission, Equation of Excellence and Standards of Ethics, in addition to giving information about how these components support R.T.s and patients.  

“We cover important information about ethics expectations,” says Reynolds. “We share examples of some of the most common rule violations in medical imaging; the appropriate actions to take; and the processes involved if an ethics review is necessary.”
