  • Ensure that all necessary documentation, including informed consent forms and patient information, is completed before the procedure.
  • Verify patient identity and screening criteria to ensure safety, such as checking for implanted devices, allergies to contrast agents, or pregnancy.
  • Prepare and position the MRI room by ensuring the machine and equipment are ready for the procedure.
  • Conducting MRI Scans :

  • Operate the MRI machine , adjusting settings (e.g., magnetic field, radiofrequency pulse) to obtain high-quality images as prescribed by the physician.
  • Position patients on the MRI table, ensuring they are comfortable and aligned to capture the correct images while adhering to safety standards.
  • Administer contrast agents as prescribed by the physician to enhance image clarity, ensuring the patient is monitored for adverse reactions.
  • Ensure the patient remains still during the scan to obtain clear, high-resolution images.
  • Monitor the MRI process to confirm quality imaging, making adjustments to the settings or positioning as necessary.
  • Patient Safety and Comfort :

  • Ensure patient safety during the MRI procedure, especially concerning the strong magnetic fields, by verifying that no ferrous or metal objects are present on the patient.
  • Keep patients informed during the scan, providing reassurance and instructions as needed to ensure comfort.
  • Monitor the patient’s condition, including vital signs, during the scan to detect any potential issues or discomfort.
  • Ensure proper patient positioning to avoid injuries or discomfort during the imaging process.
  • Post-Procedure Care :

  • Assist the patient off the MRI table after the procedure and ensure they are stable and comfortable.
  • Provide post-procedure instructions, including the use of any follow-up treatments, care for injection sites (if contrast agents were used), and any other aftercare instructions.
  • Ensure that any required post-scan imaging or additional scans are scheduled as necessary.
  • Address any immediate concerns or side effects the patient may experience, especially if contrast agents were administered.
  • Maintenance and Equipment Care :

  • Ensure that the MRI machine is regularly calibrated and functioning correctly, performing basic maintenance and troubleshooting when necessary.
  • Clean and disinfect the MRI suite and equipment between patients to adhere to infection control protocols.
  • Monitor equipment performance, identify malfunctions or issues, and alert the appropriate staff for repairs or servicing.
  • Collaboration with Medical Team :

  • Communicate effectively with physicians, radiologists, and other medical staff to ensure the correct images are obtained and the patient’s needs are met.
  • Work with other healthcare professionals to review images, assess the need for follow-up scans, and discuss patient conditions.
  • Collaborate with radiologists to ensure the final images meet diagnostic standards and are transmitted accurately to the appropriate physician for review.
  • Documentation and Record-Keeping :

  • Document all relevant patient information and scan results in the electronic health record (EHR) , ensuring that records are complete and accurate.
  • Ensure that imaging data is properly labeled and uploaded into the system, and assist with reports or communications as needed.
  • Maintain logs of equipment usage, maintenance, and any issues encountered during procedures.
  • Radiation Safety and Protocols :

  • While MRI does not use ionizing radiation, ensure safety by following the guidelines for handling contrast agents and any equipment that could pose a risk to patients.
  • Adhere to radiation safety standards for other imaging technologies used in the department, such as when operating in proximity to X-ray or CT equipment.
  • Follow all established safety protocols, including magnetic field safety, to avoid accidents or injuries.
  • Professional Development and Training :

  • Stay current with the latest MRI technology, scanning techniques, and patient care practices.
  • Participate in continuing education programs and obtain necessary certifications to maintain licensure and improve professional skills.
  • Assist in training new MRI technologists or students on the operation of MRI machines and best practices in patient care.
