Every diagnostic X-ray device requires QA/QC testing in order to calibrate all exposureparameters, assess the functional performance of the X-ray equipment, and ensure radiationsafety around the X-ray installation. In other words, QA/QC of diagnostic X-ray equipment isrequired to obtain the highest quality diagnostic data with the least amount of radiation dangerto the patient.The regular QA tests are required to make sure that the equipment’s functional performance iscomparableto itsbaseline values andwithin the toleranceranges set bythe regulatory body.

• Qualified service engineersat the userinstitution shouldconduct these tests(s).
• These tests should be carried out on a regular basis (annually) and after significant X-rayequipment maintenance.

Various radiological devices are utilized for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) testing. These devices encompass a range of equipment, such as computed tomography (CT) scanners, X-ray machines (including portable, C-arm, fluoroscopy, cath-lab, O-arm, and G-arm), mammography machines, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scanners, orthopantomography (OPG) machines, intra-oral X-ray systems(IOPA), and even veterinary X-ray equipment. These devices play a crucial role in ensuring the quality and accuracy of radiological imaging and diagnostics.

Radiation Safety Officer (RSO) training serves the purpose of equipping individuals with the necessary knowledge and skills to ensure the safe and proper handling of radiation sources and the implementation of radiation safety protocols. With Entromedical, the purpose of RSO training is to empower healthcare professionals and personnel with the expertise required to effectively manage radiation safety in their respective facilities.

By participating in Entromedical’s RSO training program, individuals gain a comprehensive understanding of radiation safety regulations, principles, and best practices. They learn how to assess and minimize radiation risks, establish safety protocols, and maintain compliance with relevant regulatory requirements. The training covers various aspects, including radiation safety procedures, equipment handling, radiation monitoring, emergency response, and quality assurance.

Entromedical’s RSO training aims to enhance participants’ proficiency in radiation safety management, enabling them to create a safer environment for both staff and patients. The program provides valuable insights into radiation protection measures, emphasizing the importance of dose optimization and minimizing unnecessary radiation exposure.

A safety assessment is performed to ensure that the workplace is safe for employees and thatpotential hazards are identified and controlled. To ensure that the workplace remains safe, asafety assessment should be performed on a regular basis.

When ionizing radiation is used in industry, including medicine, some radiation protectionstandards apply. You should conduct a safety assessment that takes into account all of thedifferent types of radiation sources you use. Your safety assessment should take into accountequipment, protocols, and operations. It should specify the sources of both routine andpotential exposures, provide an accurate estimate of the resulting doses, and specify theradiological protection measures needed for both routine operations and incident preventionand response. Before receiving a source or using it for the first time, you should conduct aSafety Assessment.

If you are not currently performing radiography, you should conduct a safety assessment everyfive years at the very least. Aqualified individual who is familiar with the radiography processshould conduct a safety assessment. It should include a thorough examination of your radiationsafetyprogramaswell asall equipment,procedures, andwork areas.

The purpose of Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) for medical equipment in the UAE is to ensure the reliability, functionality, and safety of the equipment throughout its operational life. PPM involves the systematic and proactive maintenance of medical equipment to prevent unexpected breakdowns, minimize downtime, and optimize performance.

With PPM, the primary objective is to conduct regular inspections, servicing, and calibration of medical equipment according to manufacturer recommendations, industry standards, and regulatory requirements. The specific purposes of implementing PPM for medical equipment in the UAE include:

Equipment Reliability:

PPM helps maintain the reliability of medical equipment by identifying and addressing potential issues before they lead to equipment failure. Regular maintenance tasks, such as cleaning, lubrication, and component replacement, ensure the equipment operates consistently and performs as intended.

Performance Optimization:

PPM helps optimize the performance of medical equipment by ensuring that it operates at its optimal level. Regular calibration and adjustments help maintain accuracy, precision, and consistency in diagnostic and treatment procedures, leading to better patient outcomes.

Risk Mitigation:

PPM plays a crucial role in mitigating risks associated with medical equipment. By identifying and rectifying any potential safety hazards or malfunctions, PPM helps ensure the equipment operates safely for both patients and healthcare providers.
