The European MR safety landscape
Our survey of MR safety practices across Europe revealed significant heterogeneity in regulations, training, and scanning practices. There is a widespread lack of awareness and implementation of MR safety guidelines and diffuse uncertainty, under-scanning of eligible patients, and preventable accidents. The ESR proposes a harmonized, four-tiered MR safety training curriculum to standardize, and improve safety practices across Europe.
