Magnetic Resonance Safety Expert (MRSE)
WebcastFaculty
OVERVIEW
Magnetic Resonance Safety Expert (MRSE) is organized by Medical Technology Management Institute (MTMI) and will be held on Oct 13, 2018.
The target audience for this medical event is medical physicists and others wanting to learn more about the technical aspects of MR imaging and those wishing to obtain the continuing education credits required for physicists by the ACR MRI facility certification requirements. It is also appropriate for medical physics students and residents, technically oriented radiologists, MRI technologists and MRI company personnel will also find it of value. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 9.5 hours Credits.
Course Description :
This program is designed for those individuals that anticipate fulfilling the role of MR Safety Expert and serve as a resource for the MR Safety officers and MR Medical Director. The MR Safety Expert is intended to possess knowledge and understanding of the physics related to MR safety issues, and to provide guidance for those working in the MR industry. This program will provide you with the knowledge you will need to proceed to the next level and prepare you for the MRSE certification exam.
It seems likely that the majority of MRSO’s will be MR technologists, and the majority of MRSEs will be MR physicists. However, at this time, it is not a requirement of the ABMRS, and as of today, there are no specific requirements, achievements, education, or certification requirements as to who can apply to take the MRSO or MRSE examinations. The MRMD examination is designed for licensed physicians.
Course Objectives :
• Understand the MRI safety considerations for MR static magnetic fields, time varying magnetic field and time varying radiofrequency fields.
• Review the accreditation and regulatory considerations regarding MR safety.
• Describe the engineering controls for MR safety when considering MR construction and shielding design, MR safety zones and MR safety equipment.
• Identify MR safety considerations when conducting MR procedures.
• Become familiar with MRI safety considerations for administrative controls which include MR safety training, signage and labeling, access control and importance of MR Safety Committee.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
