  • What You'll Learn

    MR safety is a paramount concern to all MR Technologists, who are tasked with ensuring patient safety in the imaging environment. However, patient safety in MR can rely on unreliable factors: patient screenings are dependent on a patient’s health literacy and effective communication from MR personnel. New equipment, implanted devices, and even clothing styles have safety implications in MR. Determining what is safe for the MRI environment is an ongoing effort, and these safety determinations are aided by the MR safety labels of Safe, Conditional, and Unsafe. This presentation explores the history of MR safety labels and how they are assigned, as well as additional factors technologists should consider prior to imaging a patient.


    Objectives

    After this presentation, the attendee will be able to:

    • Describe the roles of MR personnel in patient safety.
    • Recognize the various MR safety zones.
    • Explain MR safety labeling and the guidelines associated with each MR safety label.
    • Discuss health literacy and how it factors into MR safety.
