MRI SAFETY COURSES

Our MR safety education programs are designed to meet the annual education requirements described by Accrediting Organizations (AOs) such as the ACR, IAC and The Joint Commission.

OUR PROGRAMS

The non-MR personnel program is designed for non-MR staff.

The Level 1 and Level 2 programs are designed specifically for the MR staff and MR radiologists.

MRI SAFETY BADGES

The Joint Commission, American College of Radiology (ACR), Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) and some modalities, States and municipalities require annual safety training for Fluoroscopic Radiation, CT Dose Optimization and Reduction, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for Level I and Level II staff.

Upon completion of the Advanced or Basic MRI Safety 2022 course, AltusCampus will award you a badge. Stand out among your colleagues and demonstrate your commitment to patient and team safety with an MRI Safety Badge. You can showcase the badge on LinkedIn and other social media.

MR technologists should comply with the technologist qualifications listed in the ACR MRI.

LEVEL 1 MR PERSONNEL

Individuals who have passed the facility’s MR safety educational requirements (as defined by the facility’s MRMD) to ensure that they would not constitute a danger to themselves or others in the MR environment will henceforth be referred to as Level 1 MR Personnel.

LEVEL 2 MR PERSONNEL

Those who have been more extensively trained and educated in the broader aspects of MR safety issues, including but not limited to issues related to the potential for RF-related thermal loading or burns and direct neuromuscular excitation from rapidly changing gradients, will henceforth be referred to as Level 2 MR Personnel.
