Each year, National Radiologic Technology Week^® is celebrated with a poster chosen to represent that year’s NRTW theme. Professional artists started designing posters for NRTW in 1988. Before that time, state affiliates brought their NRTW poster art to the ASRT Annual Conference as part of a contest.
