MRI safety oversight: Gaps 'big enough to drive a truck through'
MRI safety oversight is spotty at best, with gaps "big enough to drive a truck through," according to Tobias Gilk, founder of Gilk Radiology Consultants in Overland Park, KS.

ICRP has called for action worldwide to strengthen expertise in radiological protection over concerns that a shortage of investment in training, education, research, and infrastructure will compromise society’s ability to manage radiation risks. This could lead to unjustified exposure to or unwarranted fear of radiation, impacting physical, mental, and social well-being. It could also unduly limit the potential for research and development in new radiation technologies (for example, in healthcare, energy, and the environment) for beneficial purposes.

Where are radiation protection gaps for radiographers?
An Irish-led study has found new strategies are needed to ensure interventional radiology staff are properly trained in radiation safety.
Coming soon: iAOC Thailand - Paediatric Neuro Workshop II: Unwinding Complexity, August 17-18, 2024, The Sukosol Hotel, Bangkok, Thailand.
https://iaocregister.org/iaoc/
Early bird rate (June 6- Aug 9, 2024): physician 5000THB
Trainee (with letter) 4500 THB
On site rate: 5500 THB
This course is a collaborative effort between Imaging Academic Outreach Center (iAOC) Thailand, the Child Neurology Association (Thailand) and the Indiana University School of Medicine, Riley Children Hospital, USA. Its purpose is to share knowledge in Pediatric Neuroradiology, a subspecialty that is relatively underrepresented in our region. This scarcity has led to a lack of expertise and collaboration in the field.
Since 2017, the iAOC has been organizing more than 10 educational course series, both onsite and online, in pediatric neuroradiology aimed at educating radiologists, pediatricians, surgeons, technologists and health professionals. The goal is to foster mutual understanding and collaborative efforts to provide the best patient care as well as encourage young physicians in both radiology and pediatrics to join this field. The Child Neurology Association (Thailand) and Indiana University School of Medicine, Riley Children Hospital, USA, have been partners in this initiative from the beginning, promoting the idea that radiologists and clinicians from the same institute can learn together and apply these concepts in their practice without conflicting.

WHO definition: ....health systems have a considerable environmental impact but that they can also have positive effects on the environment. ...an environmentally sustainable health system .... is a health system that improves, maintains or restores health, while minimizing negative impacts on the environment and leveraging opportunities to restore and improve it, to the benefit of the health and well-being of current and future generations.
