About Us
The Chicago Area Radiation Therapists (CART) was started back in 1976 as a not-for-profit organization by a group of radiation therapists in the Chicago Area. They started a society through continuing education, refresher courses in relevant subjects, representation of radiation therapists in other professional organizations, and representation in special interest projects-such as development of state licensing laws for all radiation users. We offer 3 meetings, totaling over 12 CE credits per year. Our speakers range from Physicians, Physicists, Therapists, Nurses, Social Workers, Dosimetrists and other public health officials.
