MRI Safety Posters

In partnership with the Society for Magnetic Resonance Technologists (SMRT), the FDA has developed a series of posters addressing MRI safety key aspects for MR technologists and other site personnel.

The MRI Burn Prevention poster provides tips for preventing patient burns, the most common MRI related adverse event. This poster is also available in six other languages on the SMRT's webpage.

The two other posters address safety issues that arise when medical devices are used in the MR environment. One poster gives tips for scanning patients with implants, and the other poster provides information about how to interpret MRI safety labeling. All three posters are available for free download below.
