Course Title: "The Physics of MR Safety"
This Enduring Material has been approved for 1.0 Category A Continuing Educational credits.
To receive credit, view the content and complete the quiz with a score of 75% or better. Completion of all questions with a passing score will earn a total of 1.0 Category A Continuing Education credits. Members receiving a score less than 75% will be notified and given the option of taking the quiz an additional two times.
The certificate will state the CE reference number and awarded CE credits. Members should retain their CE certificate for their Continuing Education registry requirements.
Important Information on ARRT Category A Credits
This activity may be available in multiple formats or from different sponsors. ARRT regulations state that an individual may not repeat a live seminar/meeting or self-learning activity for credit if it was reported in the same or any subsequent biennium. It is the responsibility of each individual to maintain a record of previously submitted and credited live or self-learning CE or CME activities. Duplicate credit for the same activity in the same biennium is not permitted.
The Physics of MR Safety
• Review the static magnetic field, susceptibility and magnetic properties of materials;
• Describe translational forces or torque due to the interaction with a static magnetic field;
• Discuss direct interactions between the static magnetic field and living tissue;
• Review the RF field, heating of biological tissue, and RF interaction with metallic objects forming loops;
• Describe the antenna effect and how it relates to heating; and
• Discuss the gradient magnetic fields and the effects related to MR safety
