Quality management is also an important part of mam-mography and compliance with the Mammography Qu ality Standards Act (MQSA). Quality management requires a working know ledge of the quality improvement (QI) process and tools, quality contr ol (QC), equipment testing and regulatory guide-lines. You will learn the basics of the quality management process from the theoretical to p ractical application. A combination of experts will introduce you to t he fundamentals of QM. You will learn from the pros how QM has evolved and how QI has changed. You will receive “hands-on” application i n designing QI monitors for your facility. You will learn how a well-d esigned QM program will improve imaging quality and patient care. In a ddition to the QC testing review, you will participate in a field trip to perform a portion of the QC tests listed in the ARRT QM clinical c ompetencies required for the advanced level QM examination. All studen ts will progress through the application phase of training at their ow n rate. Advanced Health can provide the opportunity to meet some of th e clinical competency requirements for the ARRT Ad-vanced Level Exam f or Quality Management, but cannot guarantee the competency can be met. The performance of each competency is dependent upon the participant s individual skill level.
