1 AAPM Annual Meeting ACR Accreditation Updates in CT, Ultrasound, Mammography and MRI: ACR Accreditation Update in CT Michael McNitt-Gray, PhD, DABR, FAAPM Professor, Department of Radiological Sciences David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA Chair, ACR CT Accreditation Program Physics Subcommittee
2 Learning Objective To understand the requirements of the ACR CT accreditation program, including updates to the QC manual, FAQ process and the newest program ACR Designated Lung Screening Center.
3 ACR CT Accreditation Program The CT Accreditation Program involves the acquisition of clinical and phantom images, dose measurements and the submission of scanning protocols.
4 What s New? The GOALS remain the same The CONTEXT has changed CTAP started as a VOLUNTARY program : Medicare Part B REQ D accreditation by a CMMS approved body ACR CTAP was one of the approved bodies
5 What s New? In CA, State Law REQUIRED accreditation by one of the bodies recognized by CMS That clause went into effect July 1, 2013 Again, not REQUIRED to be ACR accredited, but it was one of the approved accrediting bodies.
6 What s New? The GOALS remain the same SOME aspects have changed A few highlights: Electronic Submission Requirements QC manual
7 What s New? ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION OPTION Submission can now be completely electronic (no film, no CDs) This includes forms, clinical images, phantom images and dosimetry spreadsheets Note that CD Submission is still available
8 What s New? Physics (Phantom Portion) testing is unchanged For each protocol being submitted: CT number accuracy Low-contrast resolution Image uniformity CTDI
9 What s New? Some values HAVE CHANGED
10 What s New? Some values HAVE CHANGED PEDS CNR values changed as well
11 What s New? QC Program New Requirements Effective Dec 1, 2013 all ACR CT accredited sites must maintain a documented quality control (QC) program and must comply with the min. frequencies of testing outlined in the manual
12 What s New? QC Manual CT QC manual was released Updated August 2013 Available on ACR CTAP website
13 QC Manual Three main sections: Radiologist Section Technologist Section Medical Physicist Section
14 QC Manual Radiologist Section Definition of Quality Assurance Definition of Equipment Quality Control Responsibilities of the Radiologist Responsibilities of the Quality Control Tech. Responsibilities of Qualified Med Physicist
15 QC Manual Radiologist Section
16 QC Manual Technologist Section Technologist Daily Quality Control Technologist Weekly Quality Control Technologist Monthly Quality Control
17 QC Manual Technologist Section
18 QC Manual Physicist Section Annual Tests Protocol Review Scout Prescription and Alignment Light Accuracy Image Thickness Table Travel Accuracy Radiation Beam Width Low Contrast Performance
19 QC Manual Physicist Section Annual Tests (continued) Spatial Resolution CT Number Accuracy Artifact Evaluation CT number uniformity Dosimetry Gray Level Performance of CT Acquisition Display Monitors
20 QC Manual Physicist Section Each Test: Objective Frequency Equipment (ACR Phantom or Mfr Phantom) Test Procedure Data Interpretation and Analysis Precautions and Caveats Recommended Perform Criteria and Correct. Action Timeframe for Corrective Action
21 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) CTAP has used FAQs since the beginning FAQs for accreditation submissions *NEW* FAQs for QC manual as well Clarifications Scanner specific responses (often in conjunction with manufacturers) ditation/ct/ct%20qc%20manual%20faq% %20Final.pdf
22 ACR Designated Lung Screening Center Announced Spring 2014 (> 1000 facilities already) Unit-specific All sites applying for this designation must: Have active ACR CT accreditation in chest module on designated unit(s). AND meet the requirements described in the application (yes, it costs $400 per facility) Screening-Center
23 ACR Designated Lung Screening Center Application: Site Information/Demographics, supervising physician and CT unit info Attestation form NOTE: No Phantom, No Clinical Images, No CTDI measurement spreadsheets (you re welcome!) The facility s lung cancer screening protocol in a clinical data form Fee
24 ACR Designated Lung Screening Center Attestation form Recommended Screening Population Personnel Qualifications interpreting physicians Medical physicists and radiologic technologists Follow up System structured reporting system Smoking Cessation CT Equipment Quality Control Imaging Protocol will be submitted (next slide) Attestation that ACR-STR Practice Parameter has been reviewed and will be followed
