FDA Approves ACR MQSA Alternative Standard Request

The Food and Drug Administration last month approved an ACR request for an alternative standard that will allow facilities to use the new ACR Digital Mammography Quality Control Manual under MQSA. The manual is currently undergoing preparation for publication and should be available this spring. ACR-accredited mammography facilities (and those applying for accreditation) will be invited to download the PDF manual at no charge; medical physicists associated with ACR-accredited facilities will also be allowed to download the manual at no charge. More information will be available in the near future. Please visit the ACR Mammography Accreditation website for the latest information.
