Although all US states are different, it is important to understand what is required of you to not only properly registered, but to become compliant with state regulations. Here are some insights on researching, compiling, and managing proper documentation for your x-ray department. 

Our guest, Josh Robinson, has been working on x-ray machines for over two decades. Many of our clients and listeners ask questions about how to know that their equipment is running properly or inquire about what to look for when analyzing their machine's performance. 

Josh provides a 20,000 foot look at understanding your system and how to recognize issues before they arise. 

Most clinics and practices must include a shielding plan, i.e. radiation survey of their x-ray room prior to the installation of the modality. This helps to determine if the room is insulated and safe to all parties involved including, the x-ray operator, the patient, and individuals that are within proximity to the room.

Shielding plans are submitted and reviewed by a medical physicist to determine if the room requires lead layers behind the drywall. Some modalities do not require this, but more permanent installations do. 

The Radiology Coach introduces this concept and answers common questions about the topic.
