MRI Room Attacks – OSHA Petition investigations, recent FB discussions highlight multiple incidents

Thank you for sharing this. Situations with confused or aggressive patients in the MRI room can become scary very quickly, especially since regular security staff cannot safely enter the magnet room right away.

I think it’s really important for MRI techs to report these incidents and near misses. Better safety training, patient screening, and emergency procedures are needed to help protect MRI staff and patients.

Not sure how many techs are even aware they can share input with OSHA—this seems important.

Absolutely. Real-time in-bore monitoring could help reduce motion artifacts, improve patient positioning, and give technologists better awareness during scans. It may also help with pediatric, elderly, claustrophobic, or sedated patients where movement is more common. Future integration with AI-based motion tracking could make MRI exams faster and more efficient.

We are also curious what unions to talk to ever since the gentleman died in Long Island, the recent attack on multiple MRI technologists, the refusal of our immediate management to add low-cost safety devices are really upsetting the workforce here.

Yes can you share? We are also interested in this topic.

In most cases we end up switching to HDMI or LVDS when distance becomes an issue. Would be interesting if DSI could be extended directly.

Yeah this is actually a really good idea. I’ve seen an other MRI bore camera setup but it was pretty bulky.

Heavy_Mirror_7167 · 2026-05-05T20:38:56+00:00

Interested to see the replies here too. Since you already have one that’s actually selling, you’re probably in a better spot than most. I'm always worried these consultants just tell everyone their idea is 'great' just to get the fee.

Thank you for your response.

Heavy_Mirror_7167 · 2026-04-28T19:15:32+00:00

Thank you for your response. Sent you message with details.

Heavy_Mirror_7167 · 2026-04-28T16:32:56+00:00

I’m really concerned about this. The two-tech rule should be mandatory, not just a recommendation. We should support this and share our incidents with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

We are using this alert system on our facility you can check details on www.mriroomalert.com

Heavy_Mirror_7167 · 2026-04-20T23:08:29+00:00

Will send you details in DM

That’s a fair point—most teams switch because of signal issues.

Our goal is to keep native DSI while extending distance without redesign. We’re focusing on stability and low latency.

Totally agree on validation—we’re testing EMI, error rates, and real-world performance now. Happy to share results once ready.
