  • Equipment Maintenance and Safety

   • Ensure proper operation of mammography equipment, troubleshooting any technical issues as needed.

   • Perform routine maintenance and cleaning of the equipment, following safety protocols and manufacturer guidelines.

   • Follow safety standards for radiation protection to minimize patient and staff exposure.

   • Ensure the machine is calibrated and functioning correctly to provide optimal images.

  • Record Keeping and Documentation

   • Assist in explaining test results to patients, helping them understand what comes next in the process if further evaluation or follow-up is needed.

   • Work closely with the healthcare team to ensure continuity of care for the patient, especially if abnormal results are found.

  • Adherence to Safety and Regulatory Standards

   • Ensure compliance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations regarding patient privacy and confidentiality.

   • Follow all radiation safety protocols to protect both patients and staff from unnecessary exposure.

   • Adhere to American College of Radiology (ACR) and FDA guidelines for mammography procedures and safety.

  • Patient Education

   • Provide patients with post-exam care instructions and answer any questions regarding the results, follow-up, or potential next steps.
