尽管技术快速进步和持续增长，但与心血管医学的其他领域相比，成像质量受到的关注较少。为了解决这一不足，来自心血管成像学会、私人付款人、政府机构、医学成像行业的代表和质量测量专家在第二届心血管成像智库会议上举行了会议。与会者赞同先前对成像质量的协商一致定义，并提出了质量措施。其他需要努力的领域包括数据标准化和结构化报告、适当性标准、成像登记、实验室认证、伙伴关系发展和成像研究。第二美国心脏病学院-杜克大学智库继续开发、传播和采用所有心血管成像方式的质量改进倡议。
Despite rapid technologic advances and sustained growth, less attention has been focused on quality in imaging than in other areas of cardiovascular medicine. To address this deficit, representatives from cardiovascular imaging societies, private payers, government agencies, the medical imaging industry, and experts in quality measurement met in the second Quality in Cardiovascular Imaging Think Tank. The participants endorsed the previous consensus definition of quality in imaging and proposed quality measures. Additional areas of needed effort included data standardization and structured reporting, appropriateness criteria, imaging registries, laboratory accreditation, partnership development, and imaging research. The second American College of Cardiology-Duke University Think Tank continued the process of the development, dissemination, and adoption of quality improvement initiatives for all cardiovascular imaging modalities.
