title: Radiology inhouse engineering.
abstract: In summary, a brief discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of inhouse radiology engineering has been presented. There are potential dollars to be saved, as well as the possibility of improving the quality of care we provide. If an institution cannot support an engineering program by themselves, a shared program should be considered. As legislation continues to impact imaging, we must consider different ways to accomplish our tasks: inhouse radiology engineering is one program that may warrant investigation.
