Dear AuntMinnie member,
In this edition of our MRI Insider, we're highlighting research conducted by a team from Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston that describes how MRI reveals a link between aneurysm and cumulative combat blast exposure among special operations military forces. Click here for the full details.
Speaking of military personnel, we've also got coverage of a study that outlines how MRI-guided brain stimulation appears to improve post-traumatic stress disorder recovery in veterans.
Take a look at a few contributed columns from Kelly Brock, radiologic technologist and clinical supervisor of ambulatory imaging at Hackensack Meridian Health in Paramus, NJ: One regarding a perhaps underestimated MRI safety concern -- hair extensions with metallic beads -- and another that suggests that resistance to MRI safety measures doesn't come from patients, but from within the field.
Don't miss episodes of "The Invisible Force" podcast, including "Mystery surrounds quench button in fatal MRI accident," "3 points of crisis communication following fatal MRI accident," and "Experts eye legal cues and clues in MRI safety failure." (All these installments and more can be accessed via our AuntMinnie.com Podcast Network.)
