CT Physics Services

QAS medical physicists have decades of experience in the physics testing and accreditation of CT scanners, adapting to each generation of technological advancement. We have experience testing multiple manufacturers and models of diagnostic CT machines, but also those used for PET/CT, SPECT/CT, CT simulation, and Cone Beam CT (CBCT). Beyond helping you maintain optimal image quality, we monitor protocol dosimetry to help you meet regulatory and accrediting body requirements for patient exposure. Our team can help optimize your pediatric protocols to meet LeapFrog standards.

Our physicists can guide you through the entire accreditation process, including for ACR, IAC, and RadSite. Our acceptance testing and our annual reports are structured to meet or exceed all regulatory and accrediting body requirements.
