A radiologist assistant (RA), or advanced level radiologist technologist, is a health care worker. He or she specializes in a field of medical science that uses X-rays and other forms of penetrating radiation. As defined by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT), aradiologist assistant helps enhance patient care by assisting in the diagnostic imaging environment. RAs are not physicians but they work under the supervision of a radiologist. Working within that definition, RAs perform an assortment of administrative and patient care tasks as instructed by the supervising radiologist.
