Communicating with patients properly is a key skill to have, ensuring the patients understand what to expect when it comes to scans and procedures. In 2022, the PFCC's Patient Engagement Committee created patient-friendly animations to help explain why certain scans and procedures are important in a way patients would understand. On this #TBT, let's take a look back on how far the program has progressed. #ACRBulletin 🔗 bit.ly/4keOQnw @RadiologyACR @NinaVincoffMD @AKrishnarajMD @koolkpMD @pfccdirector @DrIanWeissman

The ACR Commission on Patient- and Family-Centered Care is hard at work this month. Through its Patient Engagement and Outreach Committees, the Commission is educating patients on the importance of breast cancer screening — and guiding radiologists on improving patient communication. @NinaVincoffMD, @AnandKNarayan and @SonyaBholeMD talk to the #ACRBulletin on the commission's efforts. 🔗 bit.ly/4qztk0W @RadiologyACR @koolkpMD @DrIanWeissman @DSmethermanMD @asset25

In late 2022, the ACR Commission on Patient- and Family-Centered Care (PFCC) Patient Engagement Committee created a series of animated videos to help patients understand imaging procedures they may be about to undergo. Since the launch, the program has gone above and beyond to help ease patient's tension, releasing over 40 new videos and even creating content in multiple languages. Look at how the program has progressed with the #ACRBulletin. bit.ly/4keOQnw @RadiologyACR @NinaVincoffMD @AKrishnarajMD @koolkpMD @pfccdirector @DrIanWeissman
