• Persons employed by the Federal Government as radiologic personnel prior to the effective date of the regulation (January 13, 1986) who show evidence of current or fully satisfactory performance or certification of such from a licensed practitioner (such as a doctor of medicine, osteopathy, dentistry, podiatry, or chiropractic) who prescribes radiologic procedures to others.

• Received training from institutions in a State or foreign jurisdiction that did not accredit training in that particular field at the time of graduation; OR
