    About this class

    Magnetic Resonance
    TiP Applications Onsite Training


    This program instructs MR Technologists in the start-up operation of a Signa HDx 1.5T MR system. Instruction is delivered by a GE MR Applications Specialist at the customer’s facility. This training produces the best results when a core group of 4 MR Technologists is dedicated to the complete session. It is also critical that key Radiologists are available to review images. In addition, the patient schedule should be modified to allow time for instruction.


    • Overview

      By the end of the program, Technologists who attend the complete didactic segment will be able to use system features and perform basic to advanced procedures on the Signa HDx 1.5T MR system.
