Is the ASMIRT MRI level 1 certification part of the prerequisite for operating an MRI scanner while working in Australia?
There are no requirements in Australia for holding a MRI level 1/ level 2 certification. This Certification is not a qualification like a Master’s degree which has no clinical requirement, but rather a program that ensures a level of knowledge that is measurable and common across Australia.
