Abstract:
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging-related injuries have continued to occur at an alarming rate during more than 3 decades of use. Persistently reported MR imaging-related injuries are caused by (1) radiofrequency thermal effect burns, (2) bruising from table top and coil-related mechanical injuries, (3) magnetic field-related support equipment malfunction, (4) magnetic field-related projectile trauma, (5) gradient switching noise hearing loss. A cohesive and educated MR imaging community under the guidance of a defined management structure is essential for monitoring and mitigating MR imaging risks. This article offers an approach for decreasing MR imaging-related injury risks.
