The ACR's mission statement identifies five pillars of excellence. One of its pillars is research. ACR is recognized by many as supporting one of the premier research endeavors sponsored by a professional medical society of which the ACR Clinical Research Center is the largest component. The center is comprised of four entities: ACRIN(®), RTOG(®), QRRO(®), and ACR Image Metrix™. The Clinical Research Center encompasses personnel with extensive clinical trial expertise, a state-of-the-art IT infrastructure, and an imaging and radiation oncology core laboratory. This research enterprise supports a global network of researchers in the conduct of medical imaging and radiation oncology clinical trials. This paper's focus is on the Clinical Research Center's value to the radiology and radiation oncology professions, to the practices engaged in the clinical research, and to our patients.
ACR 的使命宣言确定了卓越的五个支柱。其中一个支柱是研究。ACR 被许多人认为是支持专业医学协会赞助的首屈一指的研究工作之一,其中 ACR 临床研究中心是最大的组成部分。该中心由四个实体组成:ACRIN(®)、RTOG(®)、QRRO(®)和 ACR Image Metrix™。临床研究中心拥有丰富的临床试验专业知识、最先进的 IT 基础设施以及成像和放射肿瘤学核心实验室的人员。该研究企业支持全球范围内的医学成像和放射肿瘤学临床试验研究人员网络。本文的重点是临床研究中心对放射学和放射肿瘤学专业、从事临床研究的实践以及我们的患者的价值。
