CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1-1 Overview
The objective of this reference manual is to provide the details to perform the tests and checks necessary
to maintain a QA Program that meets our commitments to our customer’s and their patients. It is
organized to cover the items necessary to fill out the currently published ACR Ultrasound Accreditation
Section G - QC Summary. Performing QA Checks are also essential because they not only maintain,
but often provide data to help prevent impending failures. This results in both customer and service
resource savings.
These instructions are intended as an informative approach to completing the Quality Assurance Testing
Document. Once the document is complete, provide a copy for the customer with hard-copy recordings
of the Q/A Test Results. It is important to note that this Guide is to be used for QA inspections only (service
codes 97 and 12). All other service repairs requiring parts and added labor time should be scheduled
and coded differently.
