Board of Medical Examiners


Limited Scope Exams and X-Ray Certification

X-Ray Certification

the Colorado Medical Board has revised Board Rule 700, which governs the education and training standards for unlicensed personnel exposing ionizing radiation. This would include:

  • Limited Scope Operators
  • Bone Densitometry Equipment Operators
  • X-Ray Machine Operators
  • Tomography Operators
  • Mammography Machine Operators

Persons not possessing a medical license who operate machine sources of ionizing radiation or who administer such radiation to patients will now be regulated by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
