Case study

The practice where you work needs to update their radiographic quality control plan. Currently the basic plan mentions the need to test the x-ray machine and monitor the darkroom and processing systems. Applying what you have learned in this chapter, develop a quality control plan for your practice. Include the following:

1. List of equipment you think the practice should be testing

2. The name of the test needed 3. Recommended time interval for performing the test

4. Name of the person assigned to perform the test

5. A description of what a failed test and a successful test would look like

6. The action required if a failed test results

Then prepare the following documents that your practice would use to assist the quality assurance plan:

1. A detailed, step-by-step procedure that someone could follow to perform each of the tests you have recommended

2. Forms to keep a log of the outcomes for each of the tests you recommended
