July 29, 2022
The American Society of Radiological Technologists has deemed July 24-20, 2022 to be MRI Safety Week!
What is MR Safety Week?
The week was inspired by the anniversary of an MRI related death of a 6 year old boy who died in New York as a result of a steel cylinder bring brought in an MRI room during his procedure.
The week was created to recognize diagnostic imaging teams from across North America for their role in helping promote excellence and best practice in MR safety.
