  • Title: Economic impact of quality control in diagnostic radiology.
    Author: Carlton WH, Avecilla LS, Pool WH, Wise CH, Young RG.
    Journal: South Med J; 1980 Feb; 73(2):195-7. PubMed ID: 7355320.
    Abstract:
    With ever-increasing costs confronting health care facilities, much attention is being focused on various cost-containment projects. Although it is generally assumed that a radiology department quality control program will increase costs, institutional savings may also result. A comprehensive quality control program involving continuing education, simplification of technic, processor control, standardization of cassettes, and preventive maintenance resulted in substantial savings for a medical school radiology department.
