Why do Maintenance
Keeping Records
It is good business practice that ultrasound facilities maintain
records of quality checks and corrective maintenance. The
Ultrasound Inspection Certificate (provided on ‘Inspection Paper
Work’ on page 12-35) provides the customer with
documentation that the ultrasound scanner is maintained on a
periodic basis.
A copy of the Ultrasound Periodic Maintenance Inspection
Certificate should be kept in the same room or near the scanner.
Quality Assurance
In order to gain accreditation from organizations such as the
American College of Radiology (USA), it is the customer’s
responsibility to have a quality assurance program in place for
each scanner. The program must be directed by a medical
physicists, the supervising radiologist/physician or appropriate
designee.
Routine quality control testing must occur regularly. The same
tests are performed during each period so that changes can be
monitored over time and effective corrective action can be
taken.
Testing results, corrective action and the effects of corrective
action must be documented and maintained on the site.
