Ensure that you do a FILE>SAVE AS in order to save each probe QA Test Procedure file accomplished
for the scanner being tested.

2-15 Customer Acceptance and Sign-off
After the QA Test Procedure is complete:
1. Ensure that the system is assembled, functional and returned to the customer intact.
2. On your field laptop, do a FILE>SAVE AS in order to rename the QA Testing file and save it to your
hard drive. Ensure that the same is accomplished for each additional probe file used.
3. Print out the QA Test Procedure and any additional probe files used. This will include the 22 pages
of the procedure, pages per additional probe and 4 pages of the ACR Ultrasound Accreditation
Application Forms (Section G & H). Also print out any additional probe testing procedure forms
completed.
4. Attach all hard copy prints to the appropriate places in the QA Test Procedure and gain customer
acceptance with the appropriate signature on the last page of the procedure.
The Field Engineer should also sign the first page of the ACR Ultrasound Accreditation Form Section
G.
5. The next prudent step would be to make a paper copy of the QA Test Procedure and ACR Forms
for our GE Service Records.
6. Leave the original paperwork with the customer and emphasize the following:
a. An important part of good quality control programs is maintaining records in order to assess
performance trending. Place this QA Test Procedure with the ultrasound scanner's service
records for future reference.
b. To the best of our knowledge the completed ACR Ultrasound Accreditation Application Forms
are the most current ones used by the ACR. The ACR has given us permission to reprint
these forms for the use of our customers. They must be submitted with the remainder of
the ACR Ultrasound Accreditation Application paper requirements for ACR accreditation
approval.
