New Jersey's limited X-ray rules

New Jersey's Radiologic Technology Board of Examiners (NJDEP) issues limited licenses by type: Limited Chest; Limited Orthopedic (spine and extremities, with no portables, sternum, abdomen, ribs or bone densitometry); Limited Podiatric (the lower one-third of the leg); and Limited Urologic.

The state says its examination is administered by ARRT. Official pages don't name the ARRT modules for each type, so the mapping below is inferred; confirm it with the board.

Worth knowing

  • There's no skull/sinuses limited license in New Jersey.
  • Exam instructions (effective April 28, 2022): Option 1, pay ARRT directly; Option 2, pay $160 to New Jersey.

Some of New Jersey'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.
