Personnel and department accreditation are means by which institutions can evaluate, demonstrate, and maintain the highest level of patient care. In this article, we will discuss the certification and the resources for physicians (RPVI) and technologists (RVT) who provide care to patients in the vascular lab (VL) as well as information about certification by the two accrediting bodies - the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) and the American College of Radiology (ACR) - that accredit VLs. Noninvasive vascular testing provides timely delivered valuable information to healthcare providers. Accreditation recognizes quality vascular testing services, but also facilitates a process of education and the quality assurance to improve the overall quality of vascular labs (VL).
人员和部门认证是机构用以评估、展示并维持最高水平患者护理的手段。在本文中，我们将讨论为血管实验室（VL）中的患者提供护理的医生（RPVI）和技术人员（RVT）的认证及相关资源，以及两个认可血管实验室的认证机构——社会间认证委员会（IAC）和美国放射学会（ACR）的认证信息。无创血管检测能及时为医疗服务提供者提供有价值的信息。认证不仅认可了高质量的血管检测服务，还推动了教育进程和质量保证工作，以提高血管实验室（VL）的整体质量。
