Survey identifies key priorities like active implants and safety education in the MR safety community, suggesting crucial standardization needs.
Motivation: The ISMRM MR-Safety Study Group aims to understand its community's diverse needs across research and clinical practice. With evolving MR safety challenges, assessing current priorities is essential to guide future direction. Goal(s): To gather feedback from the MR safety community on priorities and needs to guide strategic planning for the ISMRM Safety Study Group initiatives. Approach: A survey among ISMRM/ISMRT members assessing clinical relevance, workload, safety benefits, technologies, and resources using Likert-scales and open-ended feedback. Results: Active implants (4.6/5) and safety education (4.3/5) are top priorities, with 71% citing a need for standardization. Members emphasized implant protocols, training, and guidelines, noting resource gaps. Impact: This survey reveals the MR Safety Study Group's needs while emphasizing the importance of bridging research and clinical practice. Understanding community priorities across diverse backgrounds will guide future initiatives addressing evolving safety challenges.
