CT and MRI Technologist Pocket Guide 2027/2028

By Credence Mediz

At the CT console, a contrast injector, or the MRI screening desk, a single missed detail can interrupt an examination or create a patient safety risk.

This pocket guide puts scan protocols, contrast screening, imaging physics, artifact troubleshooting, and essential safety checks within reach. A free online pocket guide companion adds flashcards, quizzes, and printable reference cards for review between scans or before a shift.

Inside this 22-chapter reference, you will find:

CT scan protocols for the head, neck, spine, chest, cardiac imaging, abdomen, pelvis, trauma, and vascular examinations.

MRI protocols covering neurological, spine, body, cardiac, musculoskeletal, and vascular imaging.

CT radiation safety essentials, including CTDIvol, DLP, SSDE, dose optimization, and quality control checks.

Iodinated contrast screening, IV access, power injector setup, bolus tracking, and extravasation recognition.

Contrast reaction recognition, emergency response considerations, and documentation requirements.

MRI physics, pulse sequences, image contrast, artifacts, and troubleshooting.

MRI safety zones, implant screening, gadolinium contrast, and patient preparation.

Registry review topics, clinical experience requirements, formulas, conversions, and quick-reference tables.
