After receiving comments from members about continuing experience requirements for CT, MRI, and ultrasound, the American College of Radiology (ACR) has revised its requirements for physicians supervising and/or interpreting these exams.
The Reston, VA-based organization now stipulates that physicians must have read an average of nine exams per month for each modality over the prior 36-month period.
For physicians reading organ-system-specific exams across multiple modalities, they must read a minimum of 60 organ-system-specific exams per modality in 36 months. However, they must also read a total of 200 cross-sectional imaging studies over the prior 36 months.
