1. Educational Program

• Annick proposed a course on radiation safety, subject safety, and other issues critical for approval from the IRB and other regulatory agencies.
  • The goal is to offer this course in Spring-Summer 2009
  • This course can present safety information and best practices for the acquisition of images within multiple imaging modalities
  • Radiation Safety Officers determine the necessary content of the safety portion of IRB submissions that include imaging
  • One goal of the Imaging Consortium is to develop a standardized language for IRB submissions involving imaging that can be available to Investigators at all institutions within the Harvard CTSC.
  • The Educational Program provides an opportunity to develop or disseminate this standardized language.
  • A key responsibility of The Imaging Liaison will be to collate information from the multiple institutions and develop a standardized language that can be shared throughout the Imaging community
