Synopsis

There is a potential risk of injury or death of patients and personnel exposed to the MRI environment if safety procedures are not followed. Formal MRI safety education is one of the most critical components of ensuring awareness of MRI hazards and safety practices to protect employees and patients from harm. The presentation discusses how we designed and introduced an e-learning MRI safety training module for non-MRI personnel at WCH. This aimed to encourage an MRI safety aware culture to help reduce the incident rate for MRI related events or risk of harm to patients and personnel.
