23 years ago today, Paul Lauterbur and Peter Mansfield received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries that made MRI possible. 🏅🩻

Their breakthrough transformed how we see inside the human body without surgery.

Today, over 40,000 MRI scanners operate worldwide.

For Alzheimer’s disease, MRI plays an important role in assessing structural changes in the brain and helping clinicians rule out other causes of cognitive decline.

Getting these scans right requires excellent image quality and a strong understanding of sequences such as 𝗧𝟭, 𝗧𝟮, 𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗜𝗥, and diffusion imaging. Subtle changes in regions such as the hippocampus can provide valuable information during clinical assessment.

More than 𝟱𝟳 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻 people worldwide live with dementia, with Alzheimer’s disease accounting for the majority of cases.

At Corsmed, we’re proud to play a role behind the scenes. Our 𝗠𝗥𝗜 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 helps train the professionals responsible for acquiring these complex brain scans.

When every detail matters, practice matters.

The physics was understood. Guidance had been published through the 1990s.

What was missing was a standard anyone was held to.

Then in July 2001, six-year-old Michael Colombini was struck by a steel oxygen cylinder that the magnet tore out of an anaesthesiologist's hands during his scan. He died two days later.

The ACR published its White Paper on MR Safety the following year. It gave the field the four zones, defined who counts as MR personnel, and turned access control from good practice into the expectation. Non-ferrous cylinders became the norm in MR departments. The last week of July became MR Safety Week.

That is 25 years of genuine progress, built by people who refused to let it happen twice.

But we can only maintain these standards with trained personnel. Every zone line and every screening question only holds if the person on shift understands the physics underneath it.

That's the part we work on.

ISMRT is running free virtual safety sessions all week, 27 to 31 July. Worth an hour of anyone's time.

To everyone keeping a scan room safe today: you're the reason the last 25 years worked. 🧲

1. Identify rotational motion artifacts in brain MRI images.
2. Understand why head rotation creates circular blur and ghosting.
3. See how rotational speed affects image acquisition.
4. Learn how TR controls how often the scanner checks the anatomy.
5. See why a perfectly timed TR can make a moving patient look still.

Respiratory motion is one of the most common challenges in abdominal and chest MRI.

When a patient breathes during an un-gated scan, the anatomy moves during image acquisition.
This can create severe wave-like artifacts across the image and reduce diagnostic image quality.

In this video, we show exactly how breathing affects MRI images, why breath-hold instructions matter, and how respiratory gating helps create sharp and static abdominal images.

💡 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼:

1. Identify respiratory motion artifacts in MRI images.
2. Understand why free breathing creates wave-like artifacts.
3. Compare breath-hold scans after exhale and inhale.
4. See how liver and lung position changes with breathing.
5. Understand why localizers must match the breathing mode of the full protocol.
6. Learn how respiratory gating reduces motion artifacts.
7. Compare free-breathing MRI with respiratory-gated MRI.
