| The College of Radiology – Alliance for Radiation Safety in Paediatric Imaging & the Image Gently Campaign |
|
In 2008, the CoR-Academy of Medicine of Malaysia, joined the Alliance for Radiation Safety in Pediatric Imaging, a coalition of 34 healthcare organisations serving over 400,000 healthcare providers worldwide. The Alliance goal is simple: to raise awareness of opportunities to lower radiation dose used in pediatric imaging examinations through its informational “Image Gently” campaign. Materials to help educate parents about medical imaging and to help them track their child’s past imaging exams: “MY Child’s Medical Imaging Record” and “What Parents Should Know About CT Scans for Children”, including Paediatric CT protocol guidance and worksheet, including other resources are downloadable at www.imagegently.org |
