Annapolis, MD / May 27, 2026 – RadSite™, a leading accreditation organization promoting quality-based imaging practices, is pleased to announce the members of its Ultrasound Standards Committee, a multidisciplinary group of experts convened to support the development of a new Ultrasound Accreditation Program.

The Committee includes clinicians, technologists, administrators, and industry leaders with experience across a wide range of ultrasound applications and clinical settings. Through this collaborative effort, RadSite is working to develop a practical, evidence-informed framework to support consistent, high-quality ultrasound practice.

Ultrasound continues to expand across healthcare, from traditional radiology departments to point-of-care and bedside use. As its role has grown, so has variation in how ultrasound is performed, documented, and overseen. The Committee has been tasked with addressing these challenges by helping define standards that reflect real-world practice while supporting quality and patient safety.

“RadSite’s standards development process depends on the expertise and engagement of its volunteer committees,” said Garry Carneal, JD, MA, RadSite President and CEO. “The Ultrasound Standards Committee brings together a diverse group of professionals whose insights are essential to building a framework that is both practical and aligned with current clinical use.”

“Ultrasound is used in a wide range of clinical environments, and expectations for training, documentation, and oversight are not always consistent,” said Mena Ramos, MD, Chair of the Ultrasound Standards Committee. “The Committee’s goal is to develop standards that are practical, evidence-informed, and reflective of how ultrasound is actually used in patient care today.”

The Ultrasound Standards Committee has been meeting regularly since January 2026.  RadSite expects to complete the first draft of the new Ultrasound Accreditation Program by the fall and will continue to add additional specialty modules into 2027.
