Abstract
Because there are many potential risks in the MR environment and reports of adverse incidents involving patients, equipment and personnel, the need for a guidance document on MR safe practices emerged.

As the MR industry changes the document is reviewed, modified and updated. The most recent version will reflect these changes.
