IRMER update 2019: Optimisation in clinical imaging

27th September 2019 09:00 AM - 05:00 PM (GMT+01:00) Europe/London

CPD: 5 points

Building on the success of previous BIR IRMER updates, this event aims to provide an invaluable multi-disciplinary forum in which to hear about current practice and the direction of flow of IRMER. You will hear about the new working parties established to provide guidance on specific aspects of the new regulations – if you don’t know what they are – come along and find out!

It provides the opportunity to consider the wide-sweep of IRMER from radiation safety culture to communicating with patients; and along the way hear about what happens when all the CQC inspectors converge on a single site.

Come to this event to network with your colleagues in radiology, physics and the various government bodies.
