Valley Open MRI & Diagnostic Center awarded a three-year term of accreditation

Dr. Juan D. Gaia, President, Valley Open MRI & Diagnostic Center in Kingston is proud to announce his facility has been awarded a three-year term of accreditation in high field and low field MRI as the result of a recent survey by the American College of Radiology. The survey was performed by the ACR based on clinical submission of images by Georgann Wywoda, BSRT(R)(MR).

The ACR, headquartered in Reston, Va., awards accreditation to facilities for the achievement of high practice standards after a peer-review evaluation of its practice. Evaluations are conducted by board-certified physicians and medical physicists who are experts in the field. They assess the qualifications of the personnel and the adequacy of facility equipment. The surveyors report their finding to the ACR’s Committee on Accreditation, which subsequently provides the practice with a comprehensive report.

The ACR is a national organization serving more than 32,000 diagnostic/interventional radiologists, radiation oncologists and medical physicists with programs for focusing on the practice of medical imaging and radiation oncology and the delivery of comprehensive health care services.
