Social Responsibility
Putting Patients First
AHRA: The Association for Medical Imaging Management
For the past fourteen years Canon Medical Systems USA, Inc. has partnered with AHRA in support of Putting Patients First program, awarding more than 70 grants dedicated to improving patient care and developing best imaging practices in the areas of CT, PET/CT, MR, Ultrasound, X-ray and Angiography. This collaboration seeks to improve patient care, safety and cybersecurity in imaging through grants that fund programs, trainings and seminars at IDN/hospital systems, local hospitals and imaging centers.
ASRT Program
In collaboration with Canon Medical Systems, the goal of the Safety FiRsT™ program is to support radiologic technology workplace safety initiatives by awarding up to two grants of $7,000 each for institutions to implement a radiologic technology safety program.
Healthy Sonographers
Did you know that 90% of sonographers suffer from work-related MKS disorders and 20% of those cases are career ending? At Canon Medical, we started the Healthy Sonographer Campaign to teach sonographers how to scan in ergonomically correct and comfortable positions so they can avoid becoming a statistic.
