Documentation and Record-Keeping:
- Accurately document all patient information, procedures performed, imaging parameters, and medications administered in the electronic health record (EHR).
- Ensure that all records are completed in compliance with hospital or clinic policies and regulatory standards.
- Maintain detailed logs of imaging procedures, contrast agents used, and patient conditions during and after the procedure.
Radiation Safety and Compliance:
- Follow strict radiation safety protocols to ensure that radiation exposure is minimized for both the patient and the medical staff, including wearing protective equipment such as lead aprons.
- Adhere to healthcare regulations and standards, including HIPAA, infection control measures, and hospital accreditation guidelines.
- Stay updated on the latest radiation safety practices, imaging techniques, and procedural advancements.
Professional Development and Training:
- Participate in continuing education and training to remain current with the latest technologies, techniques, and best practices in interventional radiology.
