What people are saying about ScanLabMRTM
“ScanLabMR is a really exciting new development in the assessment of MRI competency. For the first time, you can test your ability to prescribe and angle slices and manipulate protocol parameters in a range of different MRI examinations, all from the comfort of your own home, college or workplace. ScanLabMR not only gives you a score, but also feedback on where you went wrong and how you can improve. A great educational and practical tool!”
Dr Catherine Westbrook EdD, MSc, PgC, DCRR, FHEA
“When I began teaching MRI in 2000, I immediately identified that education in a laboratory-style setting was needed for MR educational programs. The quest for a robust MR simulator is finally over. The collaboration and support of the ScanLabMR team is unparalleled. The ScanLabMR team is open and receptive to our feedback, and is constantly improving their product to ensure our students have the best experience possible.”

“ScanLabMR is a great leap forward in MRI education for the Medical Imaging Technologist, enabling an “operator” to learn and test their skills with a virtual patient. The commitment of Matthew to ensuring that the software is clinically relevant by consulting with experienced operators, researchers and educators across the globe has resulted in a valuable educational resource that tests knowledge of MRI safety, pulse sequence parameters and scan coverage and alignment. In the socially distant world ScanLabMR provides a means for staff to learn and employers to assess potential employees before they are contracted to commence working.”

“A-M-A-Z-I-N-G… what I’ve been waiting for!! ScanLab is a powerful tool with real potential to revolutionize how we objectively assess staff competence, performance and ability, as well as test their critical thinking and understanding behind aspects of clinical decision making. As a training tool it allows learners to practice scanning in a safe space and to make those mistakes we’ve all made but without impact on the patient or delaying operational productivity. It could better prepare those new to MRI to the core principles behind scan technique and help expedite getting their hand-eye coordination in for slice manipulation. I’m truly excited to see where this goes.”
