Medical Physics Services
Dade Moeller offers a full range of medical physics consulting, including therapy, diagnostic and nuclear medicine physics services. Whether you are a large network of healthcare providers or a small local clinic, we can provide you comprehensive and personalized medical physics services.
We are experienced, professional, and board-certified physicists.
- CLINICAL COVERAGE. We can provide seamless coverage for your chart checks, chart rounds, machine checks, and QA when your physicist is away or has an increased workload.
- PROGRAM REVIEW. We can review your existing program or help you set up new programs for quality assurance or radiation safety.
- LICENSING, ACCREDITATION, AND AUDITS. We can assist with all of your licensing and accreditation needs, as well as helping you meet your State requirements by performing an inspection as an audit.
- IMAGING MODALITY TESTING. We can arrange annual and periodic physics testing for all imaging modalities, as well as state inspections or X-ray registrations for radiography, CT units, and fluoroscopy.
- SHIELDING. Our experts can perform shielding calculations for you, as well as area surveys to ensure your shielding is installed correctly.
- ACCREDITATION. If you are seeking accreditation by the American College of Radiology (ACR) or the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC), we can arrange physics services that will meet the requirements for accreditation for CT, PET, PET/CT, SPECT (Nuclear Medicine), MRI, mammography, and ultrasound.
- REGULATORY INSPECTIONS. We can help you prepare for your U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) or State regulatory agency inspections, including: Sale of radiation monitoring dosimeters for your staff, management of your radiation dosimetry program, dose calculations, radiation safety training, temporary RSO services, on-site audits, and waste management. We are licensed for services in many states and are experienced with government contracts as well.
Whatever your medical physics needs, Dade Moeller can help you ensure the safety of your workers and customers, the effectiveness of your programs,
and the
regulatory compliance of your facility.
