From the main site, users can find links to subsites for the various modalities, including:
- Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI);
- Computed tomography (CT);
- Mammography;
- Ultrasound (for breast, abdomen and OB/GYN applications);
- Digital radiography (DR); and

The network features a database of more than 12,000 questions in a curriculum developed by JCAHO experts, focusing on requirements for Standard HR.01.05.03.
