IAC is pleased to offer a complimentary webcast, 2021: The Year of MRI Safety.
Presented by Tobias B. Gilk, MRSO, MRSE, this webcast is designed to discuss the universal risks with MRIs; how the tragic 2001 accident resulting in a boy’s death refocused industry attention on MRI safety; what has changed in MRI safety in the past 20 years; and where we go from here.
