Quality management is also an important part of mam-mography and compliance with the Mammog raphy Quality Standards Act (MQSA). Quality management requires a work ing knowledge of the quality improvement (QI) process and tools, quali ty control (QC), equipment testing and regulatory guide-lines. You wil l learn the basics of the quality management process from the theoreti cal to practical application. A combination of experts will introduce you to the fundamentals of QM. You will learn from the pros how QM has evolved and how QI has changed. You will receive “hands-on” appli cation in designing QI monitors for your facility. You will learn how a well-designed QM program will improve imaging quality and patient ca re. In addition to the QC testing review, you will participate in a fi eld trip to perform a portion of the QC tests listed in the ARRT QM cl inical competencies required for the advanced level QM examination. Al l students will progress through the application phase of training at their own rate.
