      Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS1074 and CMS1206.

      Size-adjusted dose is calculated by pre-processing software prior to incorporation into the 1206v2 eCQM. Each pre-processing software vendor is responsible for ensuring that their software meets measure specifications. If you have questions regarding Alara's pre-processing software, please contact Alara directly: https://www.alaragateway.com/contact

      For Excessive Radiation Dose or Inadequate Image Quality for Diagnostic Computed Tomography (CT) in Adults measures, it has been stated that any translation software (not just Alara) can be used that calculates the appropriate measure calculations needed for these measures.

      Questions:

      1. Is there a list of certified translation softwares or softwares in the process of certification? 

      2. As more softwares become used and are certified, where will that information be available?
