Course Overview
The ARIN Imaging Nurse Review Course is a 2 day
course designed to provide an overview of the skills
required for the nurse working in the imaging,
interventional, and therapeutic environment. This
course can also be used to prepare for the radiologic
nursing certification exam. It is not designed as a
single study tool to prepare for this exam; however, it
is a useful resource when used in conjunction with
other study materials.
