Motivation: MR protocol development in a clinical setting is essential for running an optimal MRI service within Radiology. However, there is no clear path to implementation.
Goal(s): The purpose of this study was to understand the varied nature of MR protocol development within the clinical setting in the UK.
Approach: We conducted a survey on MR protocol development, and approached MR Physicists, Radiographers and Radiologists within the UK.
Results: Results highlighted the current lack of resources, particularly scanner and staff time. Respondents also highlighted the importance of implementing processes, enabling communication and disseminating results.
Impact: Establishing good practice in MRI protocol development can lead to major improvements within the radiological workflow, including efficiency and image quality gains for higher quality diagnosis and increased patient throughput.
