New York Public Health Law Section 3500 - Declaration of policy and statement of purpose.

 3500. Declaration of policy and statement of purpose. It is declared
  to  be the policy of the state of New York that the health and safety of
  the people of the state must be protected against the harmful effects of
  excessive  and  improper  exposure  to  ionizing  radiation   and   from
  inadequately   performed   diagnostic   tests   and   radiation  therapy
  treatments. Such  protection  can  best  be  accomplished  by  requiring
  adequate  training  and  experience  of persons under the supervision of
  licensed practitioners as defined in this title. It is  the  purpose  of
  this   article   to  establish  standards  of  education,  training  and
  experience  and  to   require   the   examination   and   licensure   of
  radiographers, radiation therapists and nuclear medicine technologists.
