In relation to being an EKG Technician, having an EKG Technician job or even attending to an EKG Technician Classes, MRI shows much greater detail of the central nervous system than CT. Therefore, imaging requests for adult and neonatal intensive care patients with neurological problems are increasing. It is possible to examine these patients with MRI but it needs planning and plenty of time. The main problems are caused by the number of lines and infusion pumps attached to the patient.

These should be disconnected unless absolutely essential. Those infusions that must be continued need extensions of adequate length to keep the pumps outside the 30-G line. Another potential problem with sick infants is maintenance of body temperature as the MR environment is cold and air conditioned to ensure optimal system function. Infants should be returned immediately, at the end of the examination, to a transport incubator.
