Outside your basic need for qualified expert support for your radiation generating machines program, Diagnostic Medical Physics service is there to provide the highest level of physics support to ensure you are producing the highest quality diagnostic images possible for your equipment. Don't rely solely on equipment engineers to decide what a "diagnostic quality" image is for your facility. Rely on individuals who are trained in the physics of imaging and can work with your physicians, technologists, and engineers to maximize your imaging services.
Medical Physics support goes beyond the State and FDA requirements for machine evaluation and performance. Especially given the recent estimate of a 600% increase in medical dose over the last 20 years, you need the type of support that will ensure that the dose to your patients and staff are minimized as much as reasonable. Additionally, you may encounter times when you must determine the radiation dose to an individual patient, pregnant patient, or projected treatment of a patient. These are significant dose determinations that can only be performed by experienced, qualified physicists; don't rely on potentially unreliable information from unqualified sources.
If you are pursuing accreditation from the American College of Radiology or other accrediting body, you need support from individuals who not only fully understand the imaging modality, but also are familiar with the accreditation process. The professionals at RSCS have experience in all the accreditation modalities and are available to support your accreditation efforts.
