MR Safety Officer responsibilities - (answers)The role of MRSO is often carried out
by the senior
Radiographer (in the USA this will generally be an MR technologist), but other
suitably trained individuals could also fill this role. Multiple MRSOs could be
appointed, provided only one is in charge at a given time. His/her responsibilities
include the following:
To be readily accessible and available (eg, to the operators of the MR system) at
all times that the MR facility is accessible.
Ensuring that proper policies and procedures for day-today MR safety are
enforced.
Developing, documenting, and introducing, in conjunction with and under the
authority of the MRMD/MRRD, safe working procedures for the MR environment.
Ensuring that adequate written safety procedures, work instructions, emergency
procedures, and operating instructions are issued to all concerned after full
consultation with the MRMD/MRRD (and, if/as needed, the MRSE).

Ensuring that appropriate measures for minimizing risks to health that arise from
the use of or exposure to the MR equipment, as per the direction of the
MRMD/MRRD, are implemented and monitored.
Managing hazards posed by the MR equipment, and monitoring the measures
taken to protect against such hazards.
Ensuring that all Heads of Departments and senior medical staff members who
are responsible for personnel who will be involved with the MR system are
informed of the formal procedures for training and authorization.
