Operator cover over the summer

Dear All, As you may already know a new Siemens scanner has been installed. Also, we have hired a new radiographer, Jane. These are both very good pieces of news for the centre. However, over the summer we will need to run acceptance testing procedures on the new scanner and also ensure that our radiographers and other YNiC Staff MRI operators are trained to use the new scanner. The acceptance testing and training will impact on our provision of operator covered slots on the GE system. Over this week and last we have not scheduled operator cover, but have resumed normal operator cover form 18th July. We will give as much notice as we can about reductions in operator cover. If during periods when operator cover is reduced and you need a YNiC to scan, please get in touch with us and we will do our best to fit you in. Thanks for your understanding. Best wishes Tony -- Antony Morland, PhD Head of the Centre for Neuroscience, Hull-York Medical School.
