Event Description: 

This is a rare opportunity to take a look at the inner workings of an MRI Machine installed at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital which opened in 1954.

 

As the Statewide Clinical Support Service: SA Medical Imaging moves into the new Kangkanthi building and leaves behind its history, we are lucky enough to be invited to hear about the controlled shutdown of the old magnet, known as a Ramp-down.

​

We will be joined by Philips Healthcare specialist engineers to tell us about the Physics of MRI and why a magnet cannot be simply turned off.

 

Note, numbers are limited due to space, so it is essential you RSVP. Meet at the hospital main entrance 5:30 sharp to be escorted to the SAMI Seminar Room.
