ASTM labeling guidlines for all portable devices
The rule in our dept is every object with the potential of entering the MRI enviroment be labeled as safe or unsafe. The standard rule is known through out the hospital is if it is not labeled to ASK the MRI technologist on duty BEFORE bringing it into the MRI enviroment. No one person or object gets brought in without prior screening.
Old rule if you don't know: DON'T ASSUME! ASK!

ASTM labeling guidlines for all portable devices
Hello All,
I am currently working though some safety issues we are have having at the hospital where I oversee MRI. It is the wish of the radiologist per the ASTM standard supported by the AJR (ASTM F2503)that "items that may be brought into the MR environment be permanently marked to indicate the MR invironment to which a specific item may safely be exposed" Our radiologist want every IV pole, pump, respiratory device - anything that might end up near the MR - be labeled. I am wondering is anyone else doing the same thing?

Which MRI machine to buy?
I think that is a smart choice - but are you talking about a mobile MRI or just the system? A mobile would typically be more than 250k while just the system for a fixed MRI would be less.

Which MRI machine to buy?
Sandra,

Yes, this is our first MRI machine, we are currently a broker. Through more research I agree with you and have decided on finding a GE Echospeed Plus, they can be found for around 250k and seem to offer great "bang for the buck"

Your thoughts?

Which MRI machine to buy?
Hi Mike,

Is this your first MRI scanner purchase? I would recommend GE over Hitachi because it is more universal and it will be easier (and less expensive) to get service and refurbished parts. When you say high field do you mean 3.0? Since those are so costly, a 1.5T will give you the best value. That's what we currently use and with the right coils we obtain high quality images.

Hope that helps,
Sandra
