The Texas Society of Radiology Practitioner Assistants was formed on 2/09 to promote the RPA and celebrate ten years of national success! Our First Texas resident RPA graduated in 2002. We have come a long way!
We were successful in defeating SB 821 which would have limited our scope of practice and decreased our salaries. More importantly would hav eprevented us from taking care of our patients.

These purposes shall not be restricted by any consideration of nationality, race, color, sex, or creed.
