This guide should aid in making application for a training program that will meet HHS standards. It will also assist in developing the curriculum and classroom and clinical training. This guide does not apply to x-ray equipment operators in podiatry or bone densitometry. The appendices to this guide serve to provide additional information on specific subject areas. Model procedures that the applicant may adopt are provided. The applicant may use the model procedures as an outline to develop alternative procedures for review by the HHS staff. After review of this guide, if you have specific questions, you may contact:  \nThe Iowa Department of Health and Human Services, Bureau of Radiological Health  \nLucas State Office Building, 5th Floor  \n321 East 12th Street  \nDes Moines, Iowa 50319-0075  \nOr, you may call 515-371-9398  \nAPPLICABLE REGULATIONS  \nIn addition to 641-chapter 42(136C), other regulations pertaining to the technologist are found in Chapters 38, 40, and 41 of the HHS Radiation Machines and Radioactive Materials Rules. You can find the electronic version by going to [https://hhs.iowa.gov/radiological-health](https://hhs.iowa.gov/radiological-health)  \nDEFINITIONS  \n“Radiologic technologist” means an individual, excluding x-ray equipment operators in podiatry and bone densitometry, who performs radiography of the human body as ordered by an individual authorized by Iowa law to order radiography.  \n“General radiologic technologist” performs radiography of any part of the human body.  \n“Limited radiologic technologist” performs radiography for the chest, spine, extremities, shoulder or pediatrics, excluding CT and fluoroscopy.  \n“Radiography” means a technique for generating and recording an x-ray pattern for the purpose of providing the user with an image(s) during or after termination of the exposure.  \n“Student” means an individual enrolled in and participating in formal education.  \n“Chest” allows the permit holder to perform radiography of the lung fields including the cardiac shadow, as taught in the limited radiography formal education standards. Chest radiograph techniques shall not be manipulated for the evaluation of the shoulder, clavicle, scapula, ribs, thoracic spine and sternum.  \n“Extremities” allows the permit holder to perform radiography for body parts from:  \n1. The distal phalanges of the foot to the head of the femur, including its articulation with the pelvis girdle. True hip radiographs are prohibited.  \n2. The distal phalanges of the hand to the head of the humerus. The radiograph shall not include any of the views in the shoulder category unless the individual holds a limited permit that includes the should","cbCaivwVtQcaRgnz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivwVtQcaRgnz","pdf",1109099,21,"English","# Purpose\n# Applicable Regulations\n# Definitions\n# Excerpted Standards from Chapter 42 Rules\n# Required Forms\n## Limited Radiography Initial Clinical Site Form\n## Clinical Practice Record Sheet (Sample)\n## Clinical Competency Record Sheet (Sample)\n## Examination Evaluation Form (Sample)\n## Completion and Statement of Competency (Clinical Training)\n## Applications for Limited Radiography Examination and Iowa Permit","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Limited Radiography Training Manual?\",\"answer\":\"It provides guidance for meeting Iowa minimum training standards for limited radiologic technologists, including application support and curriculum and training development.
