This course can be used to prepare ARRT or NMTCB certified imaging professionals (radiographers, radiation therapists, nuclear medicine technologists, and sonographers) to take the Post Primary ARRT MRI Registry. Emphasis will be given in the areas of Image Production, Sequence Parameter Options, Data Acquisition Processing and Storage, Physical Principals and Image Formation, Safety and Biological Effects, Patient Care, and Imaging Procedures with Sectional Anatomy. Course Includes “Live Lectures” – Voluntary 10 sessions (Weekly Webinars/ live interactions with faculty all you need is your computer to join and participate). Class recordings are provided in the classroom for those who cannot attend. Online Course Materials- class recordings, online videos, demonstrations, handouts, worksheets, quizzes, and forum interaction with students and instructors. Certificate of completion (must participate fully to receive certificate) Objectives Describe how the MRI signal is created Explain the tissue characteristics (TI, T2, PD, and T2*) Describe how the MRI signal is spatially localized and how the MRI image is formed Describe the standard MRI systems and purposes such as magnet, radiofrequency, coils, and gradients Recognize pulse sequences and trade-off in parameters and explain how these affect the image quality Identify MRI artifacts and discuss the origins and prevention Describe the safety and biological issues associated with MR imaging procedures Explain MRI Exams and Procedures Identify Cross-sectional Anatomy in different imaging plane ARRT Benefits Candidates for post-primary certification and registration must meet two sets of requirements: certification and registration by ARRT (except where noted) in an appropriate supporting discipline and completion of clinical experience requirements. Beginning in 2016, structured education requirements must also be complete.
