ABSTRACT

The AAPM-TG-100 represents the state of the art for the application of risk management to quality assurance optimization for ionizing radiation medicine practices. In this document combines the tools as Ishikawa diagram, FMEA evaluations and fault trees. A distinguished item of this document is the diversity of the used codes to develop this application. The SECURE-MR-FMEA code allows the next capabilities: process map generation, as Ishikawa diagram, FMEA evaluation and fault tree construction for subprocess and causes whose generate the failures modes. The document illustrates these capabilities and shows a critical point of view of the state of the art, includes the new indicators and graphical capabilities to evaluate the contributors at the level of the subproc-ess, stages, failure modes and causes. This possibility is focused to systematic design of the defense measures for the most important contributors, which allows increasing the efficacy and efficiency in the decision taking for the improvement of quality and safety in these practices.
