In recent years, due to concerns about radiation and expectations for accurate image analysis, the use of MRI imaging has been increasing in various countries. On the other hand, incidents occurring in hospitals during MRI use are still not widely known, making it difficult to say that sufficient consideration for safety during use is being given. Particularly in Japan, unlike in the United States and Europe where verification of MRI safety through testing is mandatory, while documentation is required, it is also permissible to state "evaluation not conducted," meaning that safety assessment is not mandatory. There are accidents that can be prevented by not bringing medical devices into the MRI, but for medical devices that cannot be removed, it is necessary to clearly understand the associated risks. This webinar aims to introduce the regulatory frameworks of major markets and what is actually happening in medical settings, helping participants understand the considerations for MRI safety that are required on-site. ■ Date and Time November 27, 2024 (Wednesday) 13:00 - 16:00 ■ Recommended for - Regulatory affairs personnel, design developers, and sales representatives of medical device manufacturers.
