WHY QUALITY CT MATTERS IN LUNG CANCER SCREENING PROGRAMS Posted on August 7, 2019 by acrpublicrelations _Mark Supanich, PhD, chair of the Alliance for Quality CT and an ACR member, contributed this post._ Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the United States, but we can make a difference through quality, lifesaving screenings with low-dose computed tomography (CT). Research shows that early screening can reduce lung cancer mortality by up to 26 percent among smokers, yet only 2 to 4 percent of the eligible population is actually being screened. The medical physics community plays an important role in facilitating Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) by working with radiologists, technologists and industry partners to develop and implement optimizedCT protocols.
In 2010, the American Association of Physics in Medicine (AAPM) formed a collaborative committee in response to concerns about the misuse and misunderstanding of CT equipment. The group, Alliance for Quality CT (AQCT), includes representatives from CT manufacturers, the American College of Radiology, the American Society of Radiologic Technologists and a diverse group of practicing medical physicists from the AAPM. AQCT’s goal is to publish, in the public domain, safe and reasonable CT protocols for select exams and educational material about the use of CT. In 2016, the committee first published LCS CT protocols, which were most recently updated on July 24, 2019. The update incorporates the latest CT models and software advances from each of the manufacturers represented in the group. Our collaboration has changed the future of developing LCS programs. There are many obstacles to establishing an LCS program, including economic viability, physician buy-in for shared decision-making, addressing population disparities and more. These protocols simplify one major step in the comprehensive process, all while putting safety and effectiveness at the forefront of every patient’s screening. * _Learn more about __AQCT_ _ and check out our latestprojects._

A SAD DAY FOR RADIOLOGY AND PATIENTS Posted on August 1, 2019 by acrpublicrelations _This post was contributed by Howard B. Fleishon, MD, MMM, FACR, vice chair of the American College of Radiology Board ofChancellors._
I grew up and received my medical training in Philadelphia, so the news that Hahnemann University Hospital (HUH) will close this fall impacted me personally and professionally. The closure displaces two advanced match radiology residents. Their program director sent an open letter to radiology facilities nationwide hoping to find these young doctors new training programs. The ACR put out the call to members and I am proud to say that many of you contacted ACR to let us know your programs have openings. Their program director may be in touch. But personally, this closing is a sad event for medicine and the people of Philadelphia. For more than 150 years, Hahnemann has been considered a critical center city institution. Hahnemann’s bankruptcy is a valuable case study in the finance of medicine versus serving the needs of the regional population. Unfortunately, HUH will not be the last facility to close its doors. Due to financial difficulties and the emerging consolidation trend, there will undoubtedly be others. The ACR is closely monitoring consolidation and closure trends. We will work to arm you with the latest information to help you make the best decisions for your practices, your patients and your families. Especially in these changing times, we are all in this together. Let’s continue to work together to help each other, radiology and medicine move forward.

ACR CMP MEMBERS ANSWER THE CALL AT AAPM ANNUAL MEETING Posted on July 25, 2019 by acrpublicrelations _This post was contributed by Mahadevappa Mahesh, MS, PhD, FACR, chair of the American College of Radiology (ACR) Commission on Medical Physics._ The American College of Radiology’s (ACR) Commission on Medical Physics (CMP) met on July 14, 2019 in San Antonio, Texas during the Annual Meeting of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM). As most ACR physics members are also AAPM members, it’s tradition for commission members to meet at the AAPM annual meeting. In addition, there was a flurry of activities by ACR physics members: * The ACR CMP hosted a student and trainee reception on Saturday evening with more than 80 students and residents in attendance. Members of the physics commission spoke about the ACR, how it supports the interests of medical physics and other membership benefits * For the first time, the ACR CMP organized a two hour SAM course titled “ACR Updates: Digital Mammography/CT/Fluoroscopy.” Courses were well attended and presented by ACR physics members: * Introduction to ACR activities by Dustin Gress * Digital Mammography QC manual by Eric Berns * ACR CT Accreditation program by Chad Dillon * ACR-DIR Fluoroscopy Pilot Program by Kyle Jones * A number of ACR physics committees and subcommittees met face-to-face for productive meetings ACR CMP members have kept busy in the past few months with several initiatives and activities, including: * The Richard L. Morin Fellowship in Medical Physics was developed late fall 2018. Upon approval by the ACR Board of Chancellors in Jan. 2019, CMP was successful in rolling out the program, developing a rubric for reviewing applications and selecting the first Morin Fellow, Ashley Rubinstein, who attended the ACR Annual Meeting in May2019.
* CMP chair Dr. Mahadevappa Mahesh was invited to speak at the International Symposium on Standards, Applications and Quality Assurance in Medical Radiation Dosimetry at United Nations — International Atomic Energy Agency (UN-IAEA) in Vienna, Austria * The ACR Radiation Safety Officer Resources update is currentlyunderway
* Media coverage related to CMP was published in the _Radiology Business Journal_, the _ACR Bulletin_ and other sources A common thread observed by attendees among the scientific program and vendor exhibits is the increased use of imaging in radiation therapy. I’m proud to see ACR CMP members advancing radiological care through various events and initiatives like AAPM.
