Employing these guidelines helps providers enhance quality of care and contribute to the most efficacious use of radiology.
The ACR Practice Guidelines and Technical Standards help advance the science of radiology and improve the quality of service to patients. They promote the safe and effective use of diagnostic and therapeutic radiology by describing specific training, skills and techniques.
