Abstract
The rapidly developing medical environment has required the expertise and social responsibility of radiologic technologists and needs to be enacted to support them. Therefore, the purpose of this study tried to present the basis for enacting advanced radiologic technologists act in Korea by studying the United State's license system to reflect the changes of the times. As a result, we were suggested the following conclusions. First, granting the legal status of advanced radiologic technologists is a global trend. Second, in order to legislate the advanced radiologic technologists license system, the formation of an industry-government-academic council should be preceded. Last, we could be improved public health and medical care and advance laws and systems by the legalization of radiologic technologist act.
