BioCentre fobs
by Jacqueline Mayhew 24 Oct '24

24 Oct '24

Good morning Following on from yesterdays email regarding access to the ground floor kitchen, I expressed our concerns at having to use the upstairs kitchen and YSPL have agreed that we can continue using the downstairs kitchen. If you do have a fob though, please can you let me know as over the years these have just been passed on when people have left. YSPL just need names so that they can rename the fobs currently in use. Thanks Jackie -- Jackie Mayhew York Neuroimaging Centre The BioCentre York Science Park Heslington York YO10 5NY

by Jacqueline Mayhew 23 Oct '24

Good afternoon As you may already be aware, Park Central is closing at the end of October. YSPL are also taking away our access to the ground floor kitchen and corridor from Monday 04 November. We will instead have access to the 1st floor kitchen which does not require fob access. Please could you therefore return your black fob so that we can get a refund on these.

Changes to policies and procedures at YNiC
by Andre Gouws 07 Oct '24

07 Oct '24

I will summarise some changes to YNiC policies and procedures below, but you are all encouraged to review the changed documents listed at the end of this email for full details. [ Apologies - MRI operators will receive part of this email in duplicate ] (1) *How we handle anomalies*: when we see something in a scan that we are unsure about we will send it for review by a radiologist -- as we have always done. A minor change to the procedure has been made: we used to write to the participant who's data had been sent on the same day as we sent their data for review. We would then write to them again once the report was returned to us and forwarded to their GP. Now, we will only write to them on one occasion - after the report has been returned to us. Feel free to contact me directly if you need clarification to the logic behind this change - it is not simply to save on postage but mainly to minimise the potential period of concern or distress caused to participants. (2) *MRI Level 0 trainees can scan alone with a Level 3 MRI operator*: It has been decided after extensive review that L0 operators in training can be accompanied by an experienced L3 without an additional operator in the MRI scan room. This is a change to policy. This can only be done when - (a) the L0 in training has completed a first aid certification and - (b) the L0 has completed initial L0 training and - (c) there is another qualified L0, L1, L2 or L3 operator (in addition to the L0 trainee and L3 operator already in the scan room) in the building who has signed the session screening safety safety and consent form and certified that they will remain in the YNiC building for the duration of the MRI session so that they can be called upon if necessary and - (d) the qualified L0, L1, L2 or L3 who has agreed to stay in the building must witness the participant being screened and - (e) 3 signatures are placed on the session screening safety safety and consent form - (f) at every scan session while the L0 still in training the L0 should demonstrate that they can operate that scanner bed and that they know where the emergency call alarm is. (3)* Safety and consent forms require printed name and signature*: With increasing scanner usage and operator numbers it is more necessary than ever for us to be able to log exactly who was responsible for scanning session safety. Operators should clearly print their full name and then sign the session screening safety safety and consent form - new boxes have been provided. (4) *Logging changes of operator during a scan*: If there is a change of operator during scanning (sometime operators will switch to give each other a break), the incoming operator must also sign the session screening safety safety and consent form. New fields have been added. The above summarises the changes reflected in the following 5 policy documents which will be uploaded to the YNiC website shortly: -- Anomalous Findings Policy: https://wiki.pages.ynic.york.ac.uk/UserResources/Policies/ClinicalDiagnosti… -- MRI Local Rules (latest release v8) -- MRI Training Scheme (latest release v8) -- Siemens MRI Console Operation Manual for Level 1 Operators (latest release v2) -- MRI Session screening safety safety and consent form (latest release v5) Please email support(a)ynic.york.ac.uk if you have any queries. Best wishes, André & the YNiC team ************************************************************************ André Gouws PhD Lead Technical Specialist York Neuroimaging Centre and York Diagnostic Imaging Departmental Safety Advisor - Dept. of Psychology University of York The Biocentre York Science Park Heslington YO10 5NY Working arrangements - please note that I work part time hours and that I work flexibly so that I am not always available to respond immediately.

Important updates to YNIC ethics
by Fiona McNab 10 Sep '24

10 Sep '24

Hi All, *For everyone:* we've updated some of the YNIC documents, so please make sure you use: - Version 10 of the REC application form, - Version 10 of the Participant Information Sheet, - Version 4 of the YNIC Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA). We'll get all these forms on the website as soon as possible, but they're attached here as I know some of you are waiting for them. *For MEG users:* we now have a separate questionnaire for MEG, so you will use the MEG questionnaire for MEG, the existing one for fMRI and both if your participant is having MEG and fMRI. We also now have DPIA approval for the LIDAR system, which involves acquiring and storing images of the participant's face. Please note that researchers will have access to the transformation matrix generated with these images, but only YNIC staff will have access to the images themselves. Please do not attempt to copy or keep these images! The procedures are explained in the new DPIA (version 4, attached). If you wish to deviate from these procedures, you will need to check whether you'll need to get your own DPIA approval. Any questions, please let me know. Best wishes, Fiona

Important - participant confidentiality reminder
by Andre Gouws 31 May '24

31 May '24

NOBODY should discuss, either between themselves or with the participant scanned, anything they think they may or may not have seen on that participant's MRI scan. This applies while in the scan room while someone is being scanned, or after when looking at their data. Anyone who sees something on a scan can bring any concerns to any member of YNiC staff. This should be done DISCRETELY (i.e. behind a closed door) as soon as possible after their scan session - do not call someone to the scan room or stand in open plan and say "I saw something weird in this person's brain". Discussing potentially sensitive details about someone's MRI scan could constitute a breach of confidentiality and there could be very serious consequences - Just don't do it. Please rest assured that we have processes in place to have participants' scans reviewed by medical professionals if required. And we implement those processes as discretely as we can. Please help us do that. Sincerely, -- André ************************************************************************ *André Gouws PhD* *Lead Technical Specialist* *York Neuroimaging Centre and York Diagnostic Imaging* *Departmental Safety Advisor - Dept. of Psychology* *University of York* *The Biocentre* *York Science Park* *Heslington* *YO10 5NY*
