    MRI Leadership: The complexities of leading MRI teams

    𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞, 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬!  In this episode of the 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐩𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭, we are joined by Vitor Silva, PhD, Radiographer and Supervisor at the MRI Department of ULS São João in Porto, Portugal, to explore the often overlooked but critical challenge of 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐑𝐈 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩. Although technical expertise and safety are the pillars of our profession, 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 is the glue that holds a successful department together. In this conversation, we try to move beyond clinical MR protocols to focus on the 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 of MRI: managing diverse teams, optimising departmental workflow, and the transition from clinical practitioners to team leaders. Thanks to his background, which in some ways bridges advanced academic research and hands-on clinical supervision, Vitor helps us understand how to navigate the complexities of modern MR environments and how to promote a 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 within the control room. If you have past experiences about stepping into leadership roles, managing team dynamics, or the challenges of supervision, feel free to share them in the comments and be part of the conversation!

    AI in Cardiac MRI - Future Trends

    Dear MRI Community,In Episode #20 of the Everything MRI Podcast, we sit down with Daniel Leite, the Chief Marketing and Commercial Officer of  AI4CMR , to explore the rapidly evolving world of 𝐀𝐈 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐜 𝐌𝐑𝐈 and what the future might look like for clinicians, radiographers, patients, and the industry. Daniel shares his unique perspective at the intersection of clinical practice, research and innovation, walking us through how AI is already transforming CMR workflows, from acquisition to interpretation, and how emerging tools can accelerate reporting, improve consistency, and enhance patient outcomes. Throughout this conversation, we discuss: The key drivers behind AI adoption in Cardiac MRI and the most promising future trends. How AI can support clinicians and radiographers, not replace them — enabling more efficient and accurate care. Practical insights into implementation challenges, regulatory considerations and building trust in AI tools. Daniel, an MRI radiographer by trade, also shares his vision for how AI can democratize access to cardiac MRI, making advanced cardiac imaging more scalable and accessible worldwide. As always, if you have thoughts on AI in cardiac imaging, ideas for integrating these tools into your clinical practice, or questions about implementation, join the discussion in the comments and let’s shape the future of CMR together. 👉 Interested in deepening your understanding of Cardiac MRI?Check out our Cardiac MRI Course, taught by world-leading experts: https://everythingmri.learnworlds.com/courses Thank you for exploring the world of MRI with us.
