Welcome to the new AHRA Online Institute, an education resource for medical imaging professionals at all experience levels! The Online Institute contains a series of comprehensive professional development programs. Recognizing that today’s medical imaging leaders need high quality information that is easily accessible, AHRA designed the Online Institute to provide courses in a wide array of subject areas relevant to the profession. Most courses are approved for ARRT Category A Continuing Education (CE) credit, as well as CRA credit. Participants can login, select a course, take a test, get the results, and print the CE certificate all in the same visit.

    The presentation will cover the features and uses of two different Bracco products that each provide unique value to their areas of imaging. Vueway® (gadopiclenol) is the first true high-relaxivity macrocyclic GBCA approved for use in the U.S., at a low Gd dose of 0.05 mmol/kg. Varibar® (barium sulfate 40% w/v) is a suite of 5 related barium preparations specifically designed and approved for use in the modified barium swallow (MBS) examination – the only such barium products available. Varibar was used in the clinical validation of the standardized Modified Barium Swallow Impairment Profile (MBSImP™©) protocol for evaluating swallowing disorders in adults.

  • Join us for an informative webinar that delves into the upcoming CMS Radiation Dose Quality Measures including the new Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) measure and Inpatient Quality Reports (IQR) beginning in 2025. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of the new measures and the essential steps needed to ensure that institutions are well-prepared for these changes and how to prepare for reporting. We will also discuss how Alara and Bayer’s Radimetrics® Dose Management System can be deployed to facilitate compliance with the new eCQMs.

  • In 2025, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will introduce new reporting requirements that will directly impact reimbursement for healthcare organizations. This educational webinar, hosted by Olav Christianson—author of foundational papers for CMS measure—will guide attendees through the complexities of these new requirements. The session will provide a clear, educational breakdown of the CMS reporting framework, exploring timelines, data elements, and the measure's calculation. Attendees will leave with a firm understanding of how to approach compliance without being overwhelmed by technicalities. This is a non-promotional, content-rich session designed to educate rather than promote specific solutions.
