First complete an inventory of the systems you would like to scope into your QA program along with the associated QA procedures and baseline values/tolerances.
Customise your quality assurance processes to balance the demands of maintaining compliance and achieving patient throughput. Build a schedule.
Once QA procedures are underway, ARTISCAN will perform automated data analysis against pre-defined quality protocols. Evaluating results is simple thanks to colour coded values linked to tolerances.
Monitoring trends and deviation from baseline values is easy thanks to fully automated, web based reports. Simply log onto the portal from anywhere to get access to all testing at a glance.
