Materials and methods

The department did not have a defined and documented quality assurance program. Hence, the factors which are part of such a QAP were identified and the practices in the department against those factors were compared. The scoring was done based on the degree of compliance; complete, partial or no compliance.

Results

A total of 23 parameters/subparameters were evaluated to find out the extent of quality assurance program being implemented in the study setting. Out of maximum 230, a score of 135 was achieved by the department.

Conclusion

The department of radiodiagnosis in the tertiary care institute need to institute a QAP for improving the quality and efficiency for better utilization of resources.

Key messages
