American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) · ARRT Bone Densitometry Examination Content Specifications, board approved July 2021, implemented July 1, 2022, document V 2021.07.28. ARRT lists this specification for examinations through December 31, 2026; it is the applicable outline on October 9, 2026. The workbook label 'ARRT Certification in Bone Densitometry (BD)' maps to ARRT's postprimary Bone Densitometry certification and registration examination. The announced January 1, 2027 specification is a future replacement and is not the basis of these materials.

This original 20-question sample covers selected topics across the outline. It does not reproduce official exam questions or cover every tested topic.
