The MSRT represents and serves as the official voice of radiologic technologists, to all public and professional groups within the Commonwealth, on matters concerning the profession in general and in particular, the practice of radiologic technology. We encourage all Massachusetts technologists to take an active role in advocating for our profession and our patients.
Effective August 7, 2024, the Radiation Control Program transitioned to an online application and renewal process for Radiologic Technologists.
All technologists will need to create an online account at Environmental Health eLicensing Portal and link their existing license/s to your new account in the system. Renewal notices will be sent via email
The BCEH eLicensing System User Guide provides instructions on how to get started
