Good Samaritan has been designated a Comprehensive Breast Imaging Center by the American College of Radiology® (ACR®).
By awarding facilities this status, ACR recognizes breast imaging centers that have earned accreditation in mammography, stereotactic breast biopsy, and breast ultrasound (including ultrasound-guided breast biopsy).
“We are very fortunate to have highly skilled staff who strive to perform excellent imaging to consistently achieve this accreditation,” stated Crystal Beadles Good Samaritan Mammography Manager. “We are committed to giving our patients the highest level of care possible at our breast center.”
Peer-review evaluations, conducted in each breast imaging modality by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field, have determined that this facility has achieved high practice standards in image quality, personnel qualifications, facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs.
The ACR is a national professional organization serving more than 42,000 diagnostic/interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists, nuclear medicine physicians, and medical physicists with programs focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.
