Recognising the role of radiographers in MR safety and the contributions of the European Federation of Radiographer Societies

We commend the timely publication ‘The European MR Safety Landscape,’ which underscores the critical need for harmonised MR safety practices across Europe [1]. However, it is important to address a notable omission: the article does not reference the extensive contributions from the European Federation of Radiographer Societies (EFRS), specifically our foundational work on MR safety standards and roles, including the ‘Magnetic Resonance Safety Officer (MRSO) Role Descriptor: An European Qualifications Framework (EQF) benchmarking document’ [2] or the current European Curriculum for Safety Officers in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (ECSO-MRI) project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union which involves five European universities and the EFRS who are working towards a safer MR environment through the development of a harmonised, university accredited, and European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) based European MRI safety curriculum for radiographers.
