果冻影院

To use the 果冻影院 scanners, you must apply through the Center for Imaging Research to obtain permission.

For other scanners, you must contact the institution where you are proposing to use the MRI scanner:

Froedtert Hospital: Office of Clinical Research and Innovative Care Compliance (OCRICC) (414) 805-4082

Children's Wisconsin: Office of Corporate Compliance Children's Hospital and Health System (CHHS) Diane Bauer at (414) 266-6237 or dbauer@childrenswi.org

Research MRI Safety Committee approval is required before 果冻影院/Froedtert Hospital IRB or 果冻影院 IACUC approval can be granted. For information on how to obtain approval, please go to the Obtaining Approval page. Please note, approval is also needed from the Center for Imaging Research if the 果冻影院 scanners are requested.

Research is monitored for safety at each MRI study session by the MRI Scanner Operators.

Research is monitored as needed by the MRI Safety Committee, whose mission is to foster an environment for the safe use of MRI in research at 果冻影院. This mission is accomplished by conducting timely reviews of human participant and animal studies using MRI, providing the necessary safety training for researchers and staff, ensuring only trained and safety screened individuals have access to the magnetic environment, evaluating the safe use of accessory equipment in or around the magnetic environment, and serving as an available resource for investigators and others.

The MRI Safety Committee has developed Standard Operating Procedures to guide safe practices for the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. It is expected that all investigators adhere to these procedures.

Questions and concerns may be addressed to the MRI Safety Committee.

MRI Safety Training is required for study personnel working in the magnetic environment or recruiting human subjects who will enter the magnetic environment. Training includes a description of the dangers within the magnetic environment and instructions for identifying subjects and equipment that should not enter the magnetic environment

Principal Investigators are required to complete MRI Safety Training as they are ultimately responsible for the safety of the study. Training may be modified depending on the previous MRI experience of the investigator.

Support is available for MRI research from the following sources:
