- Image quality control in digital radiologyPublication . Cândido, Susana; Ribeiro, Luís Pedro; Ribeiro, Anabela; Abrantes, António; Pinheiro, João; Almeida, Rui; Azevedo, KevinImage Quality Control is an important factor that contributes to the improvement of patient care and overall diagnostic accuracy. Our purpose was to elaborate Quality Control Charts and demonstrate the importance of image quality control in a radiology department. A total of 37 random samples, composed of 30 x-ray exams each, were selected and analyzed. Primarily, data about image non-conformities were compiled to make three distinct Quality Control Charts. Secondly, improvement and corrective actions were suggested. Our results allowed us to identify and account for different types of non-conformities found on x-ray images. This illustrates the importance and necessity for the implementation of an adequate Image Quality Control in Digital Radiology.
