How often is clinical image review required under EQUIP standards?

Under the EQUIP (Enhancing Quality Using the Inspection Program) standards, clinical image review is required on an annual basis. This practice is part of a quality assurance program aimed at maintaining high standards in mammography imaging. The annual requirement ensures that facilities regularly assess their imaging quality and identify areas for improvement, promoting consistency in mammography operations and ultimately enhancing patient care. By conducting these reviews each year, facilities can provide a systematic approach to monitoring and improving their clinical practices in line with the latest guidelines and technologies in the field.
