ACR Patient Safety Efforts
Image Gently Campaign
Launched Jan. 22, 2008, the ACR, as part of the Alliance for Radiation Safety in Pediatric Imaging, has launched the Image Gently campaign, to reduce the radiation dose used in the performance of computed tomography (CT) scans on children. For more information on this campaign, as well as steps you can take to ensure your child is receiving the most appropriate care, visit the Image Gently Web site.
RadiologyInfo
RadiologyInfo™ is the public information Web site developed and funded by the American College of Radiology (ACR) and the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). It was established to inform and educate the public about radiologic procedures and the role of radiologists in health care, and to improve communications between physicians and their patients.
QualityImaging
QualityImaging.org is the home of MEDIC, the Medical Excellence in Diagnostic Imaging Campaign. MEDIC is working to save taxpayers billions in Medicare costs and improve patient quality by establishing quality standards for advanced medical imaging.
