Successful MRI professional with expertise in machine operations, patient relations and recordkeeping. Dedicated to helping patients obtain accurate diagnoses by producing quality images. Well-versed in safety requirements and protective measures. As a highly trained and dedicated medical professional, I take great pride in providing top-notch care for all patients. In my role as an MRI technician, I am responsible for ensuring that each patient's experience during their appointment is as comfortable and efficient as possible. One of my main duties is to check patients in for their scheduled MRI appointments. This involves verifying their personal information, confirming the reason for their visit and any special instructions from their referring physician. I take this responsibility seriously, as it sets the tone for the rest of the patient's experience. After checking in, I then screen each patient to ensure that they are physically and mentally prepared for their upcoming scan. This may involve asking about any known allergies or metal implants, as well as addressing any concerns or anxieties they may have. My goal is to make sure that every patient feels heard and understood, which helps to alleviate any nerves or fears they may have about the procedure. Once a patient has been screened, I then escort them to the MRI room and get them situated on the table. To ensure their comfort, I use high bedside manners and communicate with them throughout the entire process. I understand that lying still for an extended period can be uncomfortable, so I take extra care to make sure each patient is as relaxed as possible. I ensure that each and every scan was conducted with the utmost attention to detail. With a keen eye for clarity and precision, I made sure that all images captured during the scan were of the highest quality. Once the scan was successfully completed and the patient was safely off the table, I promptly transmitted all images to PACS and DICOM for further analysis and use. By diligently following proper protocol, I ensured that all images were seamlessly integrated into the appropriate systems for efficient and effective management. My dedication to thoroughness and efficiency in this process reflects my commitment to providing top-notch care and service to our patients.
