Description:
Are you equipped for EQUIP?

The Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) has increased the overall effectiveness of mammography in early detection but image quality (IQ) remains the most cited cause of accreditation and certification failure. The goal of Enhancing Quality Using the Inspection Program (EQUIP) is to ensure every certified facility has a process in place to regularly monitor and control image quality.

This webinar will provide:

Breast Center Directors with concrete steps towards EQUIP compliance
Lead Interpreting Physicians (LIP) with clear guidance on navigating EQUIP to meet clinical image and quality control mandates
Interpreting Physicians with a review of EQUIP expectations to prepare for IQ reviews
Radiologic Technologists with an understanding of how EQUIP IQ reviews will validate and/or improve their imaging skills

Educational Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be better able to:

Describe the concepts of the EQUIP criteria
Identify how the EQUIP requirements will affect Certified Mammography Centers
Develop methods for efficiently meeting the EQUIP criteria
Describe automated vs manual methods to meet and reduce the burden of EQUIP
