Abstract in brief

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging offers important diagnostic benefits without using harmful ionizing radiation, but it also poses safety risks due to strong magnetic fields, radiofrequency systems, and contrast agents.
Radiologists need to understand the physics, hardware, and safety regulations related to MR imaging to prevent injuries such as projectile accidents, burns, or neurostimulation, and to ensure compliance with safety standards.
Implementing a safety protocol, including dividing the MRI environment into clearly labeled zones with restricted access and having emergency plans in place, is crucial for protecting patients and staff from MR-related hazards.
