Georgia Society of Radiologic Technologists (GSRT), Inc.

Roswell, Georgia, United States of America

The Georgia Society of Radiologic Technologists traces its beginning back to a 1950 meeting held by a group of radiation workers - A.P. Cook, Jr., Wayne Smith, Eunice Allen, Alice Furry, Betty Burkeen, Marjorie Tolan, and Cora Warren. In November of that year in Columbus, Georgia, these founding fathers originated the current Society as The Georgia Society of X-Ray Technicians. Since its inception, the organization has grown in numbers and scope and now represents more than "x-ray technicians." In 1967, the name was changed to The Georgia Society of Radiologic Technologists to more accurately reflect the organization's composition which now includes the careers of Radiography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computerized Tomography, Nuclear Medicine, Radiation Therapy, and Diagnostic Medical Sonography. July 9, 1993, the Society became incorporated. The Society name now reads, The Georgia Society of Radiologic Technologists, Inc..

The purposes of the Society are to advance the science of radiologic technology, to assist in establishing and maintaining high standards of education and training, to elevate the quality of patient care, and to improve the socioeconomic welfare of radiologic technologists.
