Telemammography

ONRAD’s MQSA-compliant TeleMammography services help you keep up with the increasing demand for mammography procedures. Our experienced Breast Imagers are highly qualified, and all hold academic appointments at a U.S. University. TeleMammography interpretations are available nationwide, and reports can be returned as quickly as 24-48 hours.

ONRAD Technology for Telemammography Interpretations

ONRAD’s TeleMammography technology is of the highest quality. ONRAD uses a GE Centricity IW PACS with a Cedara digital mammography viewer, which supports CAD. Radiologists read from 5-megapixel monitors made by Totuku or Dome. ONRAD’s rigorous Quality Control program for TeleMammography interpretations complies with MQSA standards and includes the following controls:

  • Self calibrating monitors are inspected by an MQSA physicist once a year
  • Documented daily inspections of monitors and calibration status
  • Weekly checks using phantoms from the facilities we read for

It’s easy to get started with our TeleMammography services. ONRAD’s experienced implementation team will manage the process and ensure our service is up and running on schedule.
