Gamma Camera medical physics services can be provided for your facility on a periodic basis in accordance with NRC, Agreement State regulations, radioactive materials conditions and applicable Accreditation Body standards and guidelines (JCAHO, ACR, ACNP, ICANL) and what is specified in your facilities Radioactive Materials License.

The Alliance Advantage

• Alliance employs three physicists that have a background as nuclear medicine/PET technologists and one ABR Nuclear Medicine Board Certified Medical physicist.


• Having multiple qualified physicists allows us to respond on short notice when your facility is under a time constraint.


• Alliance goes beyond just filling out forms by hand. All reports are presented in a typed format which is easy to read and understand. Phone and e-mail support is always available to our clients. We have a trained office staff always ready to assist you.


• During installations and equipment evaluations we work with service and the installation team to get the job done in an efficient manner.


• We can provide the appropriate ACR phantoms to complete the initial ACR Process as well as for annual surveys..

• Comprehensive equipment performance testing is performed following equipment installation and prior to clinical use. The equipment evaluation is performed in accordance with ACR and/or NEMA standards.
