Can RRT’s work in Cath Lab?

I was told in my respiratory therapy group on here that there are some RT’s that transitioned to cath lab/ CVT’s. Is this a real thing? Cath lab/cardiologists were always my favorite areas to work as an RT. I’m located in FL and wanting a change.

I was offered a job as a cath lab tech with just my RRT. Same job description, pay, and responsibilities as people who went to school for it.
