The Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) granted them a three-year term of accreditation.
“To achieve this accreditation, we met high quality metrics and underwent an intensive review of our cardiovascular lab processes by a panel of medical experts,” said DMC Radiology Director Debbie Dean, MS, R.T.
