Advanced MRI Safety Seminar 30.9.-1.10.2025 Helsinki, Finland
Join us for a transformative two-day seminar led by the esteemed Prof. Tobias Gilk, a globally recognized certified MRSO & MRSE
This comprehensive training program is designed specifically for radiologists, doctors in training (radiology), MRI radiographers, medical physicists, MRI industry representatives and radiology managers/administrators, educators focusing on MRI risks and patient care.
In the realm of MRI training, there is often a disproportionate emphasis on capturing images rather than managing MRI risks. Similarly, radiologist training tends to prioritize interpreting images rather than directing safe MRI patient care. This seminar aims to address these gaps by equipping attendees with crucial information and evaluation tools, enabling them to deliver safer MRI care to a larger pool of patients than ever before.
By attending this seminar, you will gain invaluable knowledge that can be applied to roles such as MRI Medical Director (MRMD) or MRI Safety Officer (MRSO). Discover the insights and techniques needed to provide exceptional MRI care, ensuring the well-being and safety of patients. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your expertise and make a lasting impact in the field of MRI.
