Dear Colleagues,

I wanted to make you aware of a multi-specialty and society practice parameter recently published in JUM.  I hope this document helps you.  Its intent is to provide guidance to practices who become accredited.  It also serves as a seminal paper to discuss work related injuries in sonographers and physicians.  Our intent was to help mitigate impairment and disability in our colleagues and took years of effort in this collaboration.
