The laws vary from state to state.
Here in California the laws restrict anyone other than an RT (Rad Tech) or MD with his fluoro license to step on the fluoro pedal with a patient in the beam.
I will have to research more to find out about panning, although I have a feeling because the patient will be under the beam during panning, we are restricted as well from participating without the required credentials.
ASRT (American Society of Radiologic Technologists)'s site has info on individual states' requirements:

I was recently told at a job interview that only CVTs could pan the table. Is this true? Where can I find this in writing? My current job allows anyone to pan the table and I would like to find out if this is correct or not. Thanks
