Mednovus, Inc. is working closely with Dr. Emanuel Kanal, the lead author of the
ACR Guidance Document for Safe MR Practices: 2007, for guidance, including needs assessment, practical clinical implementation requirements, and formal testing. (For disclosure, Dr. Kanal has no financial ties whatsoever with Mednovus, Inc.)
On Dr. Kanal's recommendation, Target Scanners have been purchased for all the facilities of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) in the greater Pittsburgh area. This is from Dr. Kanal:
“I am most pleased with the sensitivity, portability, performance, and affordability of the SAFESCAN Target Scanner™ handheld ferromagnetic detector and will continue to use it as an integral part of my patient safety screening.”
