RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: To review magnetic resonance safety protocols and supplement them for interventional applications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The American College of Radiology White Papers on MR Safety are summarized. Elements relevant to interventional MR procedures are emphasized. Additional policies and procedures specifically for interventional MR applications covering safety, training, and MR compatibility are proposed. RESULTS: A comprehensive operational policy for an interventional MR department is proposed. The policies and procedures helped our department perform over 400 surgeries and maintain a perfect safety record for 5 years. CONCLUSION: Interventional MR departments can operate safely but require policies and procedures beyond those required for diagnostic MR departments.
