| “In an industry where regulations widely vary state to state, a CBDT certification shows a commitment to quality DXA service and is a tangible recognition of excellence. This should be required of all DXA technicians as the concepts tested lay the foundation for accuracy in patient diagnosis and treatment of bone health related issues.” |

|
| "Although certification should be, in itself, reward enough for your sense of personal accomplishment and setting a high standard for quality in your career, it could also be viewed as a potential advantage for the future when certification becomes mandatory in states which do not already require certification.” |

| “It is important to me to be certified because I feel that it is my job to give my patients the best quality of care that I can offer as a technologist. Thus, my objective is to keep my knowledge and skills as updated as possible in the field of bone densitometry. Preparing for and taking the CBDT exam, keeping up my continuing education hours, and reading the literature available on-line through my ISCD membership ensure that I reach my goal by giving me the latest and greatest information.” |
