Quality assurance is defined as the planning, implementation, and evaluation of procedures used to produce high-quality radiographs with maximum diagnostic yield while minimizing radiation exposure. Establishing a quality control program for radiographic procedures helps to increase the quality of radiographs produced and decrease the incidence of retake radiographs. Quality assurance includes both quality control techniques and quality administration procedures.
