San Leandro Hospital Receives CT Accreditation From American College of Radiology

Alameda Health System (AHS) has announced that San Leandro Hospital's Computed Tomography (CT) department has earned accreditation from the American College of Radiology (ACR) for the first time. Current and prospective patients can trust that San Leandro Hospital's CT Services provide the highest level of care and diagnosis.

ACR accreditation recognizes that San Leandro Hospital's CT Services meet or exceed nationally accepted standards, and that its personnel have surpassed a high-level of education or certification to perform radiation therapy. All of San Leandro Hospital's CT equipment has also met quality and safety guidelines.

The ACR awards select institutions with accreditation only after a rigorous three-month process. Quality guidelines must be met daily to maintain accreditation.
