The medical imaging and radiation sciences professions perform complex procedures that require independent judgment, initiative, and certain physical abilities. The skills and abilities outlined in the MIRS Technical Standards document, available on the MIRS Department website, reflect the daily technical standards for medical imaging and radiation sciences practice and are guidelines to assist students in understanding the physical requirements of the health care training and practice environment. Inability to perform each of these functions may impact a student’s ability to complete clinical rotations and graduate on time.
