| Overview The purpose of this course is to discuss various issues that arise when the research world meets the clinical world, i.e. when scanners are shared, patients are imaged with research sequences, or incidental findings are discovered during research scans. A panel of experts in both the research and clinical realms will discuss these topics and inform the audience about standard procedures at their institutions. Target Audience Users of MRI who could encounter incidental findings in the course of a non-clinical and even non-diagnostic scan, including researchers who work in a clinical environment, and physicians and technologists who employ research scans. Educational Objectives Upon completion of this course, participants should be able to: • Describe the challenges faced by researchers, clinicians, and technologists who work together; • Implement suggestions for streamlining shared workspaces in their own institutions; and • Make informed decisions concerning PHI, incidental findings, the use of PACS, and safety for patients scanned using research protocols. |
