Geneva General Hospital Receives ACR Computed Tomography (CT) Accreditation

Geneva – Geneva General Hospital has been awarded a three-year term of accreditation in computed tomography (CT) from the American College of Radiology (ACR), recognizing the hospital's commitment to providing high-quality diagnostic imaging and exceptional patient care.

CT scanning, sometimes referred to as CAT scanning, is a noninvasive medical test that helps physicians diagnose and tailor treatments for various medical conditions.

The ACR Gold Seal of Accreditation represents the highest level of image quality and patient safety. It is awarded only to facilities meeting specific requirements based on ACR Practice Parameters and Technical Standards after a peer-review evaluation by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. Image quality, personnel qualifications, adequacy of facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs are assessed. The findings are reported back to the facility and provides the practice with a comprehensive report that can be used for continuous practice improvement.

"Accreditation from the American College of Radiology reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering the highest standards of care for our patients," said Director of Diagnostics, Jeff Murad, MBA, CRA, CNMT. "This recognition demonstrates the expertise of our imaging team and our continued investment in advanced technology and services that help ensure patients have access to exceptional care close to home."

This accreditation is another example of Finger Lakes Health's continued investment in expanding access to comprehensive, high-quality healthcare throughout the Finger Lakes region. For patients, it provides added confidence that their CT imaging studies are being performed using nationally recognized standards for quality, accuracy, and safety.
