MRI safety is a branch of research that focuses on ensuring the safe use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology in medical settings. This research area involves studying the potential risks and hazards associated with MRI machines, such as the effects of strong magnetic fields on patients with metallic implants, hearing loss from noise exposure, and the potential for burns or other injuries from radiofrequency energy. Researchers in this field work to develop guidelines, protocols, and safety measures to minimize these risks and ensure the safe use of MRI technology in healthcare.
