  • Post-Procedure Care:

    • Provide post-procedure instructions, including follow-up treatments and care for injection sites.
    • Schedule any required post-scan imaging or additional scans as necessary.
    • Address immediate concerns or side effects patients may experience.

    • Monitor equipment performance, identifying malfunctions or issues and alerting staff for repairs or servicing.
  • Collaboration with Medical Team:
    • Communicate effectively with physicians, radiologists, and other medical staff to ensure correct images are obtained and patients' needs are met.
    • Work with healthcare professionals to review images, assess the need for follow-up scans, and discuss patient conditions.
    • Collaborate with radiologists to ensure final images meet diagnostic standards and are transmitted accurately to physicians.
  • Documentation and Record-Keeping:
    • Document all relevant patient information and scan results in the electronic health record (EHR).
    • Ensure imaging data is properly labeled and uploaded into the system, assisting 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 guidelines for handling contrast agents and equipment that could pose a risk to patients.
    • Adhere to radiation safety standards for other imaging technologies used in the department.
    • 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.
