The 2010 ICANL Standards are now available below for download as a PDF. The document below is the complete ICANL Standards for Nuclear Cardiology, Nuclear Medicine and PET Accreditation. For a detailed overview of the key revisions made within the ICANL Standards download Changes: The Latest Revisions to the ICANL Standards>>

The Standards are divided into three parts: Part A — Structure, Organization and Definitions; Part B — Procedures and Protocols; and Part C — Quality Improvement.

Serving the laboratory as the accompanying guide through the ICANL accreditation process, the Standards must be referenced when completing the ICANL Online Accreditation application. Whether applying for first-time accreditation or reaccreditation, the first step toward success is a review of the Standards by every member of the laboratory staff involved in the application process.

ABOUT THE STANDARDS

Serving as the basis for the accreditation program, the ICANL Standards are an extensive document defining the minimal requirements for nuclear cardiology, nuclear medicine and PET laboratories to provide high quality care. Every two years, the Standards are reviewed by the ICANL Board of Directors and revised as needed. The Standards are used by laboratories as both a guideline and the foundation to create and achieve realistic quality care goals.
