Although regulation is intended to protect the public interest, it also confers certain advantages to the profession with respect to recognition, credibility, and political influence. As more medical radiation technologists become regulated, it is important to understand and appreciate the purposes of regulation as well as its limitations and its implications for the profession. This paper provides an overview of the regulation of health professionals within Canada, specifically focusing on developments within British Columbia (BC).
