The R.R.A. Role Delineation specifies three different levels of radiologist supervision: personal, direct, and general. With patient safety as the number one concern, personal supervision is required for nine of the 26 radiologic examinations, including myelograms and some line or needle placements. Under these circumstances the radiologist must be in attendance in the room with the radiologist assistant during performance of the procedure.
