Overview of the Patient Care Pathway

The Patient Care Pathway refers to the process a patient follows from the time he or she is first referred for an MRI scan. To safely perform an MRI scan, SureScan must be programmed On prior to receiving an MRI scan. After the scan is performed, SureScan must be programmed Off to return to pre-MRI configuration.
