CAR To Re-design Guidlines For Medical Imaging Tests In Canada

The Canadian Association of Radiologists (CAR) has recently cooperated with the Health Council of Canada (HCC) in preparing a report. It was titled “Decisions, Decisions: Family Doctors as Gatekeepers in the Use of Prescription Drugs and Diagnostic Imaging in Canada.” The report aims to support one of the main targets of CAR; which is the designing and deploying medical imaging guidelines, in a nationwide manner, to offer assistance to doctors to select the best medical imaging procedure to request.
