THE MR ENVIRONMENT

2.2.2 MR Environment

Overview The following risks associated with magnetic fields generated by MR scanners must be considered in an MR environment.

MR Environment Risks

• The static magnetic field produced by the helium-cooled main coil may result in a strong mag-netic attraction that can transform a harmless object, like a pen, into a dangerous projectile. For a 1.5 Tesla magnet, the range of this field is marked by the red-dotted 50 Gauss (5 mTesla) line and the black-dotted 5 Gauss (0.5 mTesla) lines.

• The slowly alternating magnetic fields produced by the gradient magnets of the MR scanner may create electrical voltage potentials, resulting in possible currents.

• The rapidly alternating magnetic fields produced by the gradient magnets of the MR scanner may result in radio frequency hazards such as an increase in patient body temperature, over-heating of certain objects, and an increase in noise levels.

Mobile MR Scanners

When using a mobile MR scanner, remember that the mobile magnetic field can be dangerous, as its range and effect will vary depending on the scanner location.

When using a mobile MR scanner, the area surrounding and within the 5 Gauss line should remain clear. Before moving the MR scanner, this area must be checked thor-oughly in order to prevent collisions with magnetic objects.

Staff Responsibilities

To reduce the risks associated with dynamic magnetic fields, patients, staff and other persons in the OR should only move at normal speed through the static field. Do not rotate the patient on the table at an inappropriate speed.

A member of the surgical staff (e.g., a nurse), should ensure that all used instruments have been removed from the patient and are accounted for before the patient is moved into the scanner.

MR Safety Procedures

Procedures regarding MR safety must be dr awn up by a ded icated customer staff member.

Manufacturer Documentation

For detailed information regarding the hazards and risks associated with a rapidly al-ternating magnetic field, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the MR scanner.

THE MR ENVIRONMENT

2.3.4 Establishing Safe and Effective Administration

Overview In order to establish safe and effective use and administration of the MR environment at your facility, Brainlab recommends performing the following actions.

Organizational / Facility Recommendations

Safety Checks

Always perform a safety check before a person enters the MR environment. Review any equipment to be brought into the MR environment to ensure conformance with the relevant guidelines for MR safety.

Recommendations

If your radiology department has not yet been involved in the MR development work at your site, ensure that you check your MR safety precautions with them. They have the relevant experience.

Establish a team responsible for the project. This team should include representatives from all relevant departments, such as neurosurgery, anesthesiology, radiology, nurs-ing, OR management, cleaning management, facility management, etc.

Organize frequent training sessions on MR safety and emergency procedures for all staff members who are either required to enter the MR environment, or who work near-by. MR safety training is recommended for all staff prior to entering a MR environment. Corresponding training records should be maintained for all staff members.

Provide scrub clothes without pockets to reduce the likelihood of MR unsafe material being brought into the room.

All equipment and material (including facility equipment, such as doors) in a defined area inside and around the MR environment must be color-coded in order to distinguish between MR safe and MR unsafe materials.

Do not bring any MR unsafe materials into the MR environment unless they are explic-itly labeled.

Establish procedures to ensure that corrective action for risk prevention is being fol-lowed up on a regular basis; for example, a quarterly ethic committee report regarding incidents and corresponding measures to ensure MR safety.

Display used with non-na-tive display resolution

• Brainsuite NET output resolution must be changed by Brain-lab support technicians.

• Use display with native resolution.

Scaled PAL or NTSC video is blurry

PAL or NTSC video sources must be converted from interlaced to progressive, which always results in a loss of information.

Scaled high resolution vid-eo is blurry

• Scaling video always causes a certain amount of blur. This is because the pixels do not match up exactly and must be recal-culated.

• To reduce this problem, use matching resolutions for the source and display as frequently as possible. For example, route an SXGA source to an SXGA display.

Composite video is blurry Composite video always produces a lower quality image. An al-ternative is to use S-Video instead.

Poor source signal Normally, low and high video resolution are standardized. How-ever, devices often do not comply with standards completely. Brainsuite NET can alleviate this problem to a certain extent. For a detailed analysis of the signal, contact Brainlab support.
