New Hampshire's limited X-ray rules

New Hampshire licenses Limited X-ray Machine Operators (LXMOs) through the Board of Medical Imaging and Radiation Therapy (OPLC). You need an approved LXMO course and an approved exam for each area (RSA 328-J:11).

The statute accepts several exams: the ARRT limited exam (chest, extremities, podiatric, skull/sinus and bone density), ACRRT (spine), ASPMA (podiatric), ISCD (clinical bone densitometry) or another recognized certifier.

Worth knowing

  • The statute lists spine under ACRRT, not ARRT. Whether New Hampshire also accepts the ARRT Spine module wasn't confirmed.
  • The "bone density" ARRT area in the statute may refer to an older ARRT offering.

Some of New Hampshire's details aren't stated on an official page we could read. Check with your state board before you apply or register for an exam.

New Hampshire limited X-ray FAQ

Which exams does New Hampshire accept for an LXMO?

RSA 328-J:11 lists the ARRT limited exam (chest, extremities, podiatric, skull/sinus, bone density), the ACRRT exam (spine), the ASPMA exam (podiatric) and the ISCD exam (bone densitometry), or another recognized certifier.

Can I use the ARRT Spine module in New Hampshire?

The statute lists spine under ACRRT rather than ARRT, and we couldn't confirm whether the ARRT Spine module is also accepted. Ask the board before you register.

Which modules are on the New Hampshire LXMO exam?

The core (patient care, radiation safety and image production) plus Chest, Extremities, Skull/Sinuses, Spine and Podiatric. You don't have to take every module: you take the core plus the ones for the body areas you want on your license. Parts of this aren't stated on an official page; confirm with the board before you register.

What score do I need to pass the New Hampshire LXMO exam?

Not published; we prep you to 75% on every section. Limited X-Ray Prep only calls you ready once you reach 75% on every section. Check the current pass mark with your state board.
