In this episode, we’re joined by MR safety leader Kristan Harrington for a candid conversation about one of the hottest—and most complex—topics in imaging today: remote MRI scanning.

Kristan shares what remote scanning actually looks like in the real world, from the day-to-day workflow to the big-picture questions around staffing, training, and safety. We dig into the risks, the benefits, and the practical steps facilities are taking to make it work—without compromising patient safety. This episode is packed with practical guidance, thoughtful warnings, and forward-looking ideas to keep MRI safe—no matter where it's scanned.

In part 3 of our series, The ABMRS: What Does Credentialing Really Mean for MR Safety?, host Kellye Mantooth interviews ABMRS co-founder and former Chair, Tobias Gilk. Together, they explore the consequences of not having credentialed MR Safety personnel on staff and discuss the differences Tobias has observed as an expert witness in facilities with and without credentialed professionals.

In part 2 of our series on The ABMRS: What Does Credentialing Really Mean for MR Safety? host Kellye Mantooth sits down with three ABMRS credentialed personnel: Dr. David Altman, MRMD, Dave Jordan, MRSE, and Kristan Harrington, MRSO, to discuss how becoming credentialed changed their perspective and practices regarding MR Safety.

In this insightful episode, we learn more about the day-to-day aspects of each position and how they play a vital and necessary role in MR Safety within each of their own organizations, elaborating further on the need for credentialed personnel in creating and maintaining a safe MR environment.
