The Everything MRI Podcast

𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐃𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐚, Bangladesh, 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐊! Dear MRI Community,In this episode of The 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐩𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭, we are joined by Habibur Rahman, an MRI Radiographer, to discuss his incredible journey and the stark contrast between 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐡 and 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐊. Habibur shares his early experiences in the MR field and explains how working in a 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 can ultimately make you 𝐚 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫 in a developed one. We explore his academic growth, transitioning from a clinical role on the ground to pursuing an MSC in management, all while balancing a 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐍𝐇𝐒 𝐣𝐨𝐛. He also offers valuable advice for 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 moving to a different part of the world today, helping them find their voice in a multidisciplinary team.𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖?! Our brand-new 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 is now 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄, with courses covering from foundational and cardiac MRI to veterinary and remote MRI scanning. https://everythingmri.learnworlds.com/𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐓𝐮𝐛𝐞 and 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 can email [email protected] for an 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭.What about you? Did you have past experiences of moving across countries for your MRI career? Have you ever navigated the culture shock of a new healthcare system?!

We have a small treat for you at the end of the episode! Stay till after the interview :PDear MRI Community,In this episode of The 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐩𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭, we welcome back Stephen Mhiribidi, a CMR Application Specialist, Educator, and the visionary behind Transform CMR, to discuss the struggle of 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩-𝐭𝐨-𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 in CMR while managing a heavy patient load. We tackle the mismatch between "perfect" academic research findings and the daily reality of scanning patients with 𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐡𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐦𝐢𝐚𝐬 or 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 in a standard 45-minute slot. Stephen shares his thoughts on navigating the "Black Box" complexity of 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, maintaining clinical oversight, and optimising 𝐂𝐌𝐑 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐬 according to specific clinical scenarios. And about this, we truly recommend watching this episode until the end... A little CMR 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 awaits you! 𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖?! Our brand-new 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 is now 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄, with courses covering from foundational and cardiac MRI to veterinary and remote MRI scanning. https://everythingmri.learnworlds.com/𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐓𝐮𝐛𝐞 and 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 can email [email protected] for an 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭.As usual, if you have anything you would like to share in regards to the CMR world, and specifically troubleshooting complex cardiac MR cases, feel free to share it in the comments and be part of the conversation!

𝐀𝐈 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐨-𝐒𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐞! Dear MRI Community,In this episode of The 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐩𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭, we are joined by Ralph Claessens, Global Director of OEM Partnerships for Cerebriu, to explore how 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 is becoming the ultimate 𝐜𝐨-𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐭 for radiographers/technologists. We focus on his 20-year journey in healthcare tech and discuss Cerebriu's mission of ensuring that "𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 is 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞". Together, we try to understand how the Apollo suite acts as a "second pair of eyes", detecting critical conditions like infarcts or haemorrhages 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞. Ralph also breaks down how 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐜𝐨𝐥 𝐚𝐝𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 works and how OEM partnerships are making AI a seamless, invisible part of the MR scanner. 𝐃𝐈𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐊𝐍𝐎𝐖?! Our brand-new 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 is now 𝐋𝐈𝐕𝐄, with courses covering from foundational and cardiac MRI to veterinary and remote MRI scanning. https://everythingmri.learnworlds.com/𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐓𝐮𝐛𝐞 and 𝐒𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 can email [email protected] for an 𝐞𝐱𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭.If you have thoughts on how AI might change your daily workflow or fears about automation in the control room, feel free to share them in the comments!

“𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐢𝐬 𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞” ⚠️ That’s what many people said a few years ago.Some still do.But while critics debate it on LinkedIn, several private hospitals and public institutions around the world, like NHS England, are already using remote scanning successfully in real clinical environments on a day-to-day basis.That’s because remote operations were never about cutting corners.They are about solving real problems: staffing shortages, burnout, workflow pressure, access to expertise, and safer support for both patients and radiographers.In this podcast episode, we sit down with Philip Gregory, practice educator at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, to talk openly about where remote MRI actually stands today in the UK.We discussed why departments adopting remote operations are seeing:- Greater operational flexibility- Better staff support- Improved resilience across sites- Safer escalation pathways and operations- More sustainable MRI servicesWhat’s fascinating is that some of the strongest critics of remote scanning have completely changed their position after seeing it work in practice.The conversation has moved from:“Will this ever happen?” "I don't think this is the way to go in terms of safety" to: “How do we implement it properly?” "How can I get a free pilot?"Remote MRI is here to stay.The departments embracing it early will shape the future of imaging.If your department wants to explore remote MRI operations through a free pilot, comment below - "𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐭"#MRI #Radiology #Radiographer #MedicalImaging #RemoteMRI #NHS Julien Greggio Samuel Oliveira
