Our centers are accredited by both the American College of Radiology (ACR) and Radsite, two prestigious organizations that set high standards for medical imaging practices. These comprehensive accreditation programs evaluate providers against established industry standards and best practices. Achieving this accreditation acknowledges that our centers meet or exceed nationally accepted standards of care.
The American College of Radiology (ACR) is a national organization serving more than 32,000 radiation oncologists, diagnostic and interventional radiologists, nuclear medicine and medical physicists.
As a patient, you have a say in who provides your health care and where you receive it. A core element of the ACR’s mission is to maximize the quality and safety of patient care by providing resources to help you make informed decisions.
The American College of Radiology awards accreditation to facilities for the achievement of high practice standards after a peer-review evaluation of its practice. Image quality and procedure evaluations are conducted by board-certified radiologists and medical physicists who are experts in the field. The program also evaluates personnel qualifications, adequacy of facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs. All findings are reported to the practice via a comprehensive report that includes recommendations for improvement.
The ACR accredits facilities in: Breast ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), mammography, nuclear medicine, positron emission tomography (PET), stereotactic breast biopsy, ultrasound, and radiation oncology.
ACR accreditation ensures that the physicians supervising and interpreting your medical imaging meet stringent education and training standards. ACR accreditation also signifies that the imaging equipment is surveyed regularly by qualified medical physicists to ensure that it is functioning properly, and that the technologists administering the tests are certified.
