Anyone who enters the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment, whether on a regular or infrequent basis, must be properly trained to ensure their safety, the protection of patients, and the security of other facility staff members. This program, Basic MRI Safety Training, Level 1 MR Personnel accomplishes the initial training that is necessary to ensure safety in the unique setting associated with the MRI system. It includes information pertaining to MRI technology, describes common hazards and unique dangers associated with the MRI setting, and presents vital recommendations and guidelines to prevent accidents and injuries. Importantly, this program provides the fundamental MRI safety information for Level I MR Personnel recommended by the American College of Radiology and may be utilized by individuals desiring preparation for safety training as, Level 2 MR Personnel.
With more than 30 years of experience in the field of MRI, the author of the best-selling textbook series, the Reference Manual for Magnetic Resonance Safety, Implants and Devices, and the creator of the internationally popular website, www.MRIsafety.com, Dr. Frank G. Shellock is uniquely qualified to present the information in this program.

Diagnostic interpretation of cross-sectional imaging of the mediastinum and pleura presents unique and significant challenges even to the experienced radiologist. The mediastinum is anatomically complex, comprising numerous structures ar-ranged into multiple anatomic compartments that can give rise to a wide range of pathologies. The pleural space is thin and multi-planar, which can confound evaluation and quantification of pleural abnormalities.
In this article, we will review imaging approaches to the mediastinum and pleura and present imaging pearls and pitfalls that can assist radiologic interpretation. This will include common masses that present in routine imaging of the chest and key imaging features that help to distinguish them using CT, MRI and FDG-PET/CT.
The knowledge of common mediastinal and pleural pa-thologies present on cross-sectional imaging will enable the radiologist to make informed diagnostic radiologic interpreta-tions and guide appropriate intervention and surveillance.

RSNA 2019 Archived Program
This Expert Forum Symposium features two respected radiologists who share their clinical experience applying advanced artificial intelligence techniques in both MR and CT imaging.
MR and CT imaging are advancing at a rapid rate with new scanner and software technology finding its way into advanced imaging scanners each year. Artificial Intelligence is proving to play a major role in this expansion. In this one-hour accredited CME symposium, Dr. Gold and Dr. Prokop will provide insight into how they are putting new AI tools into everyday practice at their facilities and explain how these tools are providing better patient care and throughput. Following the presentations, the faculty will take question from the audience.
Advances in CT Imaging
Presented by: Mathias Prokop, MD
Advances in MSK MR Imaging
Presented by: Garry E. Gold, MD
Educational Objectives
At the completion of this program, participants will be able to:
-
Practice two new novel approaches for advanced joint imaging with MR
-
Describe the clinical value of deep learning reconstruction techniques in CT
-
Discuss and implement Artificial Intelligence into clinical practice today
This program was originally presented live at RSNA 2019 and sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Medical Education (IAME) and supported through an unrestricted educational grant from Canon Medical Systems.

Hand masses are commonly encountered entities that often cause clinical and diagnostic dilemmas due to their nonspecific clinical presentation and overlapping imaging findings. This article systematically reviews the most commonly encountered hand masses in clinical practice in order to help the radiologist gain a structured diagnostic approach and familiarity with typical clinical presentations. Furthermore, this review will strengthen the radiologist’s ability to recognize pertinent MR imaging findings and gain knowledge of the underlying pathology on a cellular level.

Screening for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been shown to improve overall survival by detecting earlier stage, more treatable disease. For some patients with HCC, liver transplant is the preferred treatment. However, donor livers are a scarce resource. Accurate identification and description of HCC with MRI is important in the determination of which patients will receive a liver transplant.
This article reviews background information about cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, the role of screening, transplant priority determination, and diagnostic criteria for HCC.
