MR Safety Week 2019
22-28 July
Welcome to ISMRM-SMRT Safety Week 2019! MR Safety is such an important part our MR lives, and education is the cornerstone of a safe MR workplace. This week brings us a chance to refresh our safety education and highlight some of the issues we all face in the MR environment. The SMRT safety committee has worked hard to select information and provide free CEU’s during this week. Please join us for the daily videos and quizzes. You might even win a prize!
Spread the word! Together we can make a safer workplace for us all.
Visit our MR Safety Resources page for even more safety information, including videos, posters and events! |
