Supporting Safe MRI Practice
BAMRR were recently invited to join the British Cochlear Implant Group (BCIG) MRI Working Group.

Keeping Guidance Up to Date
The last revision of the BCIG website information was carried out approximately three years ago.

The working group has 23 members who work within the fields of ENT, medical physics, magnetic resonance and cochlear implants.
Manufacturer Involvement
The three leading cochlear implant manufacturers are also represented on the working group.
Sharing Expertise Across Specialities
