In 2022, the ACR Council passed a resolution to make significant changes to the process for developing Practice Parameters and Technical Standards (PP&TS). These changes impact the member commenting period and the annual meeting approval process and will be implemented for PP&TS documents considered during ACR 2024.

Changes for the 2024 Cycle

• Field Review, the public comment period for PP&TS, will take place in a single, seven-week cycle. All 2024 documents were available for comment, August 21 – October 6. This is the last opportunity to make changes during the review process.

• Addition of a Virtual Meeting – The Council’s initial consideration of the PP&TS documents will move from the annual meeting in DC to a virtual meeting, approximately one month prior to the in-person annual meeting. Save the date for these virtual meetings, March 12 and 14, 2024 from 7–9:30pm Eastern Time.

March 12 - Documents for Consideration

March 14 - Documents for Consideration
