Commemorative Brochure Features Cohort 1 Insights
More than 20 facilities across four improvement collaboratives (lung cancer screening, mammography positioning, recommendations follow-up and prostate MR) made up the first cohort of the learning network. Throughout the program, facility teams charted their course of improvement using clinical data and shared their improvement strategies and results with others in the same collaborative.A new ACR Learning Network commemorative brochure documents the launch of an initiative that brought together hundreds of individuals across the country to focus on strategies to improve difficult problems in diagnostic imaging. The brochure describes the goals and structure of the program and the role of the ACR Impower Program that guides participants through a structured improvement process.
The brochure also provides an opportunity to present the reflections of participants from sites that stepped forward to participate in the first cohort of the improvement collaborative. A common theme voiced among cohort 1 participants is that the experience not only helped them make strides in the particular problem posed by each improvement collaborative, but also instilled a new process for tackling other problems.
Thank you to the many improvement collaborative participants who offered their perspectives!
