  • RADIOGRAPHY to Prepare Individuals to Become Registered Radiologic Technologists
    RADIOGRAPHY To prepare individuals to become Registered Radiologic Technologists. THE WORKFORCE CAPITAL This two-year, advanced medical program trains students in radiography. Radiography uses radiation to produce images of tissues, organs, bones and vessels of the body. The radiographer is an essential member of the health care team who works in a variety of settings. Responsibili- ties include accurately positioning the patient, producing quality diagnostic images, maintaining equipment and keeping computerized records. This certificate program of specialized training focuses on each of these responsibilities. Graduates are eligible to apply for the national credential examination to become a registered technologist in radiography, RT(R).

  • Acr–Nasci–Sir–Spr Practice Parameter for the Performance and Interpretation of Body Computed Tomography Angiography (Cta)
    The American College of Radiology, with more than 30,000 members, is the principal organization of radiologists, radiation oncologists, and clinical medical physicists in the United States. The College is a nonprofit professional society whose primary purposes are to advance the science of radiology, improve radiologic services to the patient, study the socioeconomic aspects of the practice of radiology, and encourage continuing education for radiologists, radiation oncologists, medical physicists, and persons practicing in allied professional fields. The American College of Radiology will periodically define new practice parameters and technical standards for radiologic practice to help advance the science of radiology and to improve the quality of service to patients throughout the United States. Existing practice parameters and technical standards will be reviewed for revision or renewal, as appropriate, on their fifth anniversary or sooner, if indicated. Each practice parameter and technical standard, representing a policy statement by the College, has undergone a thorough consensus process in which it has been subjected to extensive review and approval. The practice parameters and technical standards recognize that the safe and effective use of diagnostic and therapeutic radiology requires specific training, skills, and techniques, as described in each document. Reproduction or modification of the published practice parameter and technical standard by those entities not providing these services is not authorized. Revised 2021 (Resolution 47)* ACR–NASCI–SIR–SPR PRACTICE PARAMETER FOR THE PERFORMANCE AND INTERPRETATION OF BODY COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY (CTA) PREAMBLE This document is an educational tool designed to assist practitioners in providing appropriate radiologic care for patients. Practice Parameters and Technical Standards are not inflexible rules or requirements of practice and are not intended, nor should they be used, to establish a legal standard of care1.

  • Five-Year Results of a Merger Between Vascular Surgeons and Interventional Radiologists in a University Medical Center
    From the Eastern Vascular Society Five-year results of a merger between vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists in a university medical center Richard M. Green, MD, and David Waldman, MD, PhD, for the Center for Vascular Disease* Rochester, NY Objectives: We examined economic and practice trends after 5 years of a merger between vascular surgeons and interventional radiologists. Methods: In 1998 a merger between the Division of Vascular Surgery and the Section of Interventional Radiology at the University of Rochester established the Center for Vascular Disease (CVD). Business activity was administered from the offices of the vascular surgeons. Results: In 1998 the CVD included five vascular surgeons and three interventional radiologists, who generated a total income of $5,789,311 (34% from vascular surgeons, 24% from interventional radiologists, 42% from vascular laborato- ries). Vascular surgeon participation in endoluminal therapy was limited to repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Income was derived from 1011 major vascular procedures, 10,510 catheter-based procedures in 3286 patients, and 1 inpatient and 3 outpatient vascular laboratory tests. In 2002 there were six vascular surgeons (five, full-time equivalent) and four interventional radiologists, and total income was $6,550,463 despite significant reductions in unit value reimbursement over the 5 years, a 4% reduction in the number of major vascular procedures, and a 13% reduction in income from vascular laboratories. In 2002 the number of endoluminal procedures increased to 16,026 in 7131 patients, and contributions to CVD income increased from 24% in 1998 to 31% in 2002. Three of the six vascular surgeons performed endoluminal procedures in 634 patients in 2002, compared with none in 1998.
