In this webinar, you will acquire valuable knowledge about how to prepare a report for Radiation Safety Committee/QA meetings.

Do inspections cause you and your team an inordinate amount of stress? All of the preparation can be overwhelming, the inspection itself is nerve-wracking, and you walk on eggshells waiting for the results.

If you are a radiation worker or individual who administers the dosimetry program for your institution such as an RSO, IRRP, or administrator, then you don't want to miss this webinar! Christine Krieman of LANDAUER will be delving into the important topic of fetal monitoring for pregnant radiation workers. This 1 hour webinar will provide specifics related to:

Are you new to radiation monitoring and looking for information on the basics? Then this recorded educational presentation is for you! This video will cover:

The Joint Commission (TJC) dose monitoring requirements for hospitals with diagnostic radiology services can be broken into three major categories: fluoroscopy dose monitoring, computed tomography (CT) dose monitoring, and CT protocol review. Complete coverage of these requirements can be costly in terms of employee time-cost and the cost of dose monitoring services.

In this webinar, presented by James Winslow, PhD., DABR, Senior Medical Physicist, discussed topics as follows: Dose Monitoring in Protocol Review, including image quality and patient safety (CTDI)

Join LANDAUER as Ramon Davila, Practice Manager and Shielding Designer, presents on the topic of Diagnostic Shielding Design. If you are an RSO, Radiation Technologist, or Medical Administrator or Supervisor, you'll want to watch this informative session. In this one hour webinar, you will learn how to design a good medical or dental layout, including:

Do you know what to do for CT scanners performing over expected benchmarks for an abdomen pelvis protocol? Listen to Deborah Langman, PhD, DABR, Senior Medical Physicist for LANDAUER, share a case study to illustrate how to address the issue and the associated patient radiation dose savings capabilities. Check out this webinar today.

If you manage the dosimetry program for your organization, you'll want to watch this recorded webinar! Second in her series on managing occupational dosimetry programs, Christine Krieman,  Practice Associate for LANDAUER Radiation Safety Support Services, goes deeper into some important topics.

The revised TJC sentinel event definition has left hospitals questioning when high fluoroscopic doses might qualify as a sentinel event. Dose review thresholds, skin-site monitoring, and patient dose calculations all can to help address this issue.

If you administer the dosimetry program for your organization or are a worker who wears a dosimeter due to exposure from ionizing radiation, this webinar is for you! In this 60 minute recording, you will learn:

In this 30-minute webinar, learn about the Leapfrog scoring system, how to estimate your expected median for a pediatric age cohort and mechanisms to right-size dose to help your facility achieve the best possible Leapfrog score and so much more.  Presenter Brendan Loughran, PhD, DABR, Medical Physicist for LANDAUER OPTIMIZE.  

In this 30-minute webinar, Olav Christianson, Senior Medical Physicist and LANDAUER OPTIMIZE Product Manager acquainted attendees about the recent revision to the TJC Sentinel Event definition and gave strategies on how to meet them.

The ACR, HPS, and AAPM issued a statement against basing the decision to perform a medical imaging exam on prior dose, yet the practice is so common it is in most dose monitoring software.

In this webinar, Jim O’Brien, MMSC, DABR, will address ideas on how radiology departments can use their QI program to improve patient safety, improve performance and foster a culture of continuous improvement and so much more.

Watch this recorded webinar where a panel of LANDAUER medical physicists discusses CT Protocols, how to compare protocols to current standards of practice, what limitations of scanners you need to be aware of, and so much more.

In this webinar, hear what thought leaders from the LANDAUER Medical Physics Team address what are CT Benchmarks and why do we use them, what is reported as a benchmark and how we look at values, how to compare nationwide trends, highlight bad protocols, or protocols under doses with poor IQ and so much more.

In this webinar, learn what is a CT Protocol, how do you compare protocols to current standards of practice, what limitations of scanners do you need to be aware of and so much more.

Second in a series of LANDAUER Women in Physics, attendees heard from Samantha Johnson, M.S., R.T., (NM)(CT)(ARRT), Jr. Medical Health Physicist, tell her journey into science as a career choice, what inspired her to this industry and so much more during this hour-long session.

In this webinar, Tony Zink, National Saas Sales Manager, addressed both Fluoroscopy and CT dose management measurements and offered a live demonstration of LANDAUER OPTIMIZE.  

In this webinar, James O’Brien, MMSC, DABR, Senior Medical Physicist, acquainted attendees with an overview for tracking quality, best practices to ensure TTIs are clear and defined, and so much more.

In this webinar, Tony Zink, National Saas Sales Manager, will walk you through solutions to take dose monitoring work out of your hands.

First in a series of LANDAUER Women in Physics Webinars. Learn how medical dosimetrists are essential to patient care from the past president of the American Association of Medical Dosimetrists who is a director at LANDAUER Medical Physics. Listen to her journey into science as a career choice little known to many, including female students.

If you’ve ever wondered if your radiation protocol is as good as it can be, watch this webinar, hosted by James O’Brien, MMSC, DABR, Senior Medical Physicist, to learn about industry best practices, ABC's for radiation safety culture and so much more.

In this webinar, Jim O'Brien, MMSC, DABR and Senior Medical Physicist, discusses the new Joint Commission Guidance on Sentinel events for Fluoroscopy. He also addresses why does policy and standardization matter, is it important that we have defined thresholds and how do we decide on actions to take to improve quality.

This webinar will acquaint you with the unique approach of “seeing” your radiation dose as it's happening to lessen your exposure during high-emitting procedures like interventional radiology. You will also learn how the RaySafe i3 system visualizes X-ray exposure in real-time using easy-to-read bar graphs and so much more.

Presented by Jim O’Brien, MMSC, DABR and Senior Medical Physicist, this interactive webinar addressed policies and standardization in regards to the TJC survey process, how to navigate and interpret evolving regulatory standards around dose management and how people, policies and procedures impact your survey results, noting that technology alone does not make you compliant.

Presented by Ken Repking, this webinar provides a comprehensive LANDAUER checklist of tasks to help you prepare your facility for accreditation survey, state or local inspection. Click here to download the Reference Guide showcased during the webinar.

At the conclusion of the session, the participants will be able to: List the chapters in which requirements for diagnostic imaging services reside. Describe the most scored standards and elements of performance in 2019-2020. List specific circumstances that were observed.
