Visitor Safety Hazards

Visitor safety hazards are similar to those experienced by Workers.  For more information regarding potential risks of an MR study, see Worker Safety Hazards  It is the responsibility of Operators to be aware of potential hazards to Visitors and to supervise them during the entire visit to AIRC facilities.

• Visitors may enter an MR Instrument Control Room, controlled by keypads at the AIRC, or MR Scan Room (Scanning Suite) only under the supervision of a trained Operator.
